Rejected petition Take down the petition to have the government reverse mandatory masks in shops

if the petition which already has over 1000 signatures gets sent through I want them to rip it up and move on as its signed by selfish ignorant people that don't care about staff or customer safety

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 can't accept petitions about removing other petitions. If you don't want the Government to ease the requirements regarding wearing face coverings in shops you could start a petition requesting this.

Deciding whether to remove restrictions relating to face coverings is a matter for the Government.

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