This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

Rules about selling churches are a matter for the Church of England, provided they are Church of England churches. If you’d like to start a petition about banning other churches being sold that are not the responsibility of the Church of England, you could start a petition about that.

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