Rejected petition HEY GOVERNMENT!!! Start treating these petitions like they actually matter!!!

I have been signing various petitions and hoping that they would make a difference, they have not.

So far all I have seen are lukewarm responses, given in order to keep us quiet. Petitions here need to be taken more seriously and prioritised above the personal agendas of our elected candidates.

More details

We have had multiple campaigns on here which have reached amazing heights but we have had no action on any. This is a petition to show our awareness of the government's lack of empathy towards what we the people, the true power, actually want.

No doubt there will be a similar response to this as there has been to everything else, but we can start by simply showing we stand united and will not be treated like children who cannot make our own decisions.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

There’s already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.

You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.

We cannot accept duplicate petitions. We think this petition is similar to yours:

https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/107544

You might like to sign this petition instead. It is more likely to get more signatures that way.

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