Rejected petition Ban PETA from the UK and classify them as a hate group

For over 30 years People for the Ethnical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has labeled itself as an animal rights group, whilst behind closed doors they have been killing perfectly healthy animals simply because they don't believe in people having pets.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

The UK Government does not maintain a list of 'hate groups'. This seems to be a term used in the USA, rather than in the UK. You could start a new petition calling for a ban on euthanasia for animals in the UK.

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