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.

Rejected petition Change the law regarding child predators and the sentencing thats given.

We the people, would like you to address the seriousness of child predators living on our streets and consider harder sentencing for anyone who rapes, grooms or even tries to meet a child. They should be placed in a mental institution if special needs are involved.

More details

I want you to step up and sort one of the biggest problems in the world, We want you to stand up and say no more to child predators and help us protect our children. After all it is the job of the government to do whats right by the people and address anything serious/dangerous. Unfortunately the lack of help makes us the people think this grooming goes higher up because no one cares apart from decent parents. I will keep coming, i will keep making noise till something is done.
