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 mean by "can and do overrule UK government rulings." The powers of the Devolved Administrations are set out in law, and cannot replace or overrule the UK Government or Parliament other than in issues that are devolved.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
