Make the point of these petitions fair, rather than just suit the Tory manifesto
I have spoken to many people who have put forward petitions. Most petitions are refused for very dubious and biased reasons. I have recently, due to a petition, been accused of libel and defamation, which was clearly not the case. It just didn't suit the Conservative agenda. And I will look further.
To refuse a submitted petition, then to delete it before the right of reply is pretty unjust. If the petitions are just lip service, please say so. Over half the British voterate are beginning to feel cheated of democracy on many levels in todays political climate. And that 'Over half' are not stupid!
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. Petitions are moderated by staff of the House of Commons Petitions Committee. We are politically impartial and independent of the Government.
You could start a new petition calling for a specific change to the rules on petitions, or the way the petitions system works, if that's what you want to happen.
If you would like to complain about the rejection of a petition, or if you have any questions about the reasons why petitions are rejected, you can e-mail us on [email protected].
