Rejected petition Enforce the law to stop 'fake' Muslims begging on the streets
Rejected on
Criminals dress up to appear to be Muslims carrying out illegal practices, making a mockery daily. We want the law to be applied on professional beggars 'faking' to be Muslims
True Muslims are taught to give in charity. Where there is genuine hardship, we must help the truly needy

Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
Enforcing the law is the responsibility of the police, not the UK Government or Parliament. If you believe that you have evidence that a crime has been committed, you could report it to the police.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
