Rejected petition black friday

More details

Following the debacle of Black Friday which saw people greedily fighting over televisions and other non essential goods, I would petition the government to make such events illegal, as they are unnecessary. The government should also take steps to limit the excesses of US cultural hegemony which brought the black Friday to Britain. I believe this should be done to avoid the possibility of someone be seriously injured or even dying at such an event.

Why was this petition rejected?

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