This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand you're concerned about descendants of slavery, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. In particular, we're not exactly sure what you want the UK to invest in without conditions.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do, for example a petition calling for reparations to be paid to descendants of slavery, if that's something you'd like to happen.
