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 understand that you're concerned about wasteful public spending, but we're not sure exactly what actions you want to be made a criminal offence, or who would determine if spending was wasteful.

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