This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament
Rejected petition VOID UNLAWFUL EMERGENCY POWERS IMMEDIATELY.
I would like the Gov to VOID the emergency powers, they were unlawful, and should not still be in place.
More details
Because they were unlawful, and have ruined the lives and businesses of the majority of the working class. It has lost people their homes, job's, education and in many cases their lives (suicide). The emergency powers have done more harm to the country, than any good that may have been intended.
