Rejected petition Review Rules for UK Government Petitions

Review the Rules and allow Petitions to be published where a public demand exists.

More details

Current rules preclude Petitions concerning Honours. There currently exists a public outcry concerning the awarding of Honours. Honours are awarded by Her Majesty; and Government (through the Prime Minister's audience with Her Majesty) may discuss public concern with her.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you are concerned about existing rules for petitions, but we're not sure if you want the rules to be changed so that petitions about anything are accepted, or only petitions about honours, or something else.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.

The data shows the number of people who have signed the petition by country as well as in the constituency of each Member of Parliament. This data is available for all petitions on the site. It is not a list of people who have signed the petition. The only name that is shared on the site is that of the petition creator.
