Rejected petition Change parliament dress codes so all MP's have to wear street clothes/tracksuits

Many parliament debates are televised and are available to the public but all have the MP's in smart dress which is not indicative of the population. As such i call on this petition so the MP's can dress in a sense more representative of the people rather than the 1%.

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.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you mean by street clothes.

You could start a new petition requesting the removal of a dress code for Members speaking in the House of Commons, if that's what you'd like to see happen.

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