Rejected petition Make it compulsory for UK food outlets to pick up litter in local community's.

I believe that fast food chains have an obligation to society to clean up the litter and waste discarded by their customers. This should derive from specialist in house or contracted teams fully paid for by said firms, who pick up litter discarded by the firms customers in their local community.

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.

We're not sure if you'd like this requirement to apply to all food outlets, or only to certain kinds of food outlets, like fast food chains.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.

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