Rejected petition Allow Santa to work from home

The UK government should allow Father Christmas the opportunity to work from home. He should be allowed to take advantage of alternative methods of delivery, such as an automated sleigh, to allow him to spread Joy around the world safely in 2020.

More details

Saint Nick is in the high-risk category for coronavirus. He's overweight, over 1000 years old, and he is visiting many people outside of his support bubble – literally every home in the world.

It would irresponsible not to make adequate provisions to protect Father Christmas and to safeguard his ability to spread joy to children around the world, now and in the future.

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 your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise.

The Government have already advised that people who can work at home should do so, however it's a decision for Mr Claus whether he is able to work from home.

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