Rejected petition Release Tommy Robinson. He is innocent.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

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

We've marked your petition as confidential because your comments about Mr Robinson dying in jail might be distressing for him or for his friends and family. We can't publish petitions which could cause distress.

In any case, we can't accept your petition because it's about something that the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for.

Sentences are the responsibility of the courts, which are independent of the Government and Parliament.

You could start a new petition asking for a specific change in the contempt of court laws, if that’s what you’d like to happen.

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