We can't accept your petition because we understand you're concerned about LED lights but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could start a new petition asking the UK Government and Parliament to ban LED lights above a certain brightness, if that's what you'd like to happen.
