We’re waiting for a new Petitions Committee

Petitions had to stop because of the recent general election. Once a new Petitions Committee is set up by the House of Commons, petitions will start again.

Closed petition Keep Bookshops open as an essential business

Keep book shops open as essential during tier 4 and lockdowns.

More details

During a lockdown or tier 4 restrictions, bookshops have been deemed as non essential shops, however, I and a lot of people disagree with this.
In the first lockdown, in march, books became such an integral part of their lives, whether that be to escape or something to do whilst at home. So why are you choosing to close off that joy now.
