Review the procedure and criteria for getting legal aid

Petition Details

There have been high profile cases of suspected terrorist and their sympathisers getting legal aid to defend themselves in court and appeals. Meanwhile some hard working, law abiding, tax paying citizens have to fund their own private prosecutions and lawsuits to get justice. This needs a review.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

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

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, such as restricting the types of cases where legal aid can be used.
