It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
We know many people have been deeply affected by the sad passing of Her late Majesty The Queen.
However, we can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise.
Decisions about what is displayed on Trafalgar Square is a matter for the Mayor of London and London Assembly, not the Government or House of Commons.
