Rejected petition Free Chelsea Lambie and Douglas Cruickshank

More details

I think the sentences were in the extreme and were politically motivated, These pair were made political scapegoats but when people from other faiths insult us by Burning our national flag, burning poppies and desecrating War memorial they get a slap on the wrist, including most recently a Muslim who raped a 13 year old girl and just had a suspended sentence given to him. I fail to see how these peoples offences warranted a much heavier sentence than a Rapist and I would like to see them released and bound over to keep the peace.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

The sentencing for this case took place in Scotland therefore your should petition the Scottish Parliament on this issue.

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