Make bullying a criminal offence

Petition Details

We want bullying to be made a criminal offence. Bullying can cause significant harm and even lead to suicide. This need to be stopped, with significant sentences where bullying leads to a victim committing suicide.

Additional Information

I lost my best friend as a result of bullying. People told me there was nothing that could have been done to change it, but if bullying was stopped it could have been avoided. The Government should make bullying a criminal offence, and impose significant sentences if bullying leads to a victim committing suicide, in order to tackle bullying and hold perpetrators accountable.
