Rejected petition Cowboy builders

More details

UK law does not adequately protect the victims of rogue traders who obtain money for work not carried out at all / work not carried out with the necessary care and skill under the Supply of Goods and Services Act. Rogue traders are able to declare themselves bankrupt without punishment or justice for their victims. It is time ordinary, hard working people were afforded protection from such blights on society.
