Abolish e-petitions
The government should close the e-petitions site for good. It attracts loons with hopelessly impractical notions, and it is subject to lobbying, especially by rightwing tabloids who will use it to stir prejudice to get support for their favourite fixations. It is not democratic and has no value as a basis for policy.
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:
There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.
You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
