Rejected petition Change the official spelling of Sulfur back to Sulphur

It’s just not right , look at it . Take a real good look . Sulfur , Sulphur . Sulfate , Sulphate. Sulfide, Sulphide . Let’s change this back and make Great Britain great once again . We do not need the crude Americanisation of the word corrupting out precious language . Let’s get rid of Sulfate!

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

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

Petitions have to be about something the UK Government or Parliament is responsible for.

The UK Government and Parliament do not set an "official spelling" for words.

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