Rejected petition All charging pods for electric vehicle must have its own space.
All pods should not mixed use with resident permit holders, pay by phone parking, single yellow line or double yellow line, in order to avoid conflict of interest.
More details
It is getting more and more difficult to find an available charging pods as the numbers of EV are increasing day by day.
Most available pods are always occupied by a resident permit holder without charging the vehicle.
There are some weird pods has installed right next to a single yellow line and double yellow line, which caused confusion.
EV vehicle should deserves the right to charge at any pods at anytime.
EV takes long time to charge up. Pods availability is super important!

Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
The installation and design of electric vehicle charging points in public places is a matter for local authorities and private landowners, not the UK Government or Parliament.
You could have a petition calling on the Government to fund the creation of dedicated EV charging points around the country, if that is something you'd like to see happen.
You might also like to sign this petition which calls for a related action:
