Public spaces should be welcoming to all.","additional_details":"The flags were raised without consent to send a warning that some of us don’t belong. They make migrants, minorities and their children feel afraid in the places we share, twisting our flag into a threat. Britain’s true patriotism is proud, fair, and welcoming. Leaving these displays up implies consent. The Government must remove them, support councils to act, and reaffirm that our flag unites everyone who calls Britain home. Public space belongs to all of us, not to any faction. Restore unity.","committee_note":null,"state":"rejected","signature_count":6,"created_at":"2025-10-11T10:35:01.716Z","updated_at":"2025-12-05T11:20:18.986Z","rejected_at":"2025-12-05T11:20:15.777Z","opened_at":null,"closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2025-10-11T19:03:10.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"creator_name":null,"rejection":{"code":"duplicate","details":"Review enforcement of Section 132 of the Highways Act \r\nhttps://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/746935"},"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[],"topics":[]}}}
