Rejected petition Reinstate the act of Treason towards United Kingdom

The act of Treason in Britain was removed as a criminal offence. I wish that this act is reinstated as a criminal offence punishable by prison.

More details

Over the last 5 years members of Parliament, celebrities and various public officials have worked against the democratic vote of the people of the United Kingdom to bring down our country and government. To reinstate the act of Treason would make the people in positions of power to think twice before acting.

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'd like the Government or Parliament to do. Treason is still a crime in the UK.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do, such as what offences you would like to be covered by treason laws.

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