This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

Decisions about the content of different radio stations are an operational matter for the BBC, not the UK Government or Parliament.

You could have a petition calling on the Government to fund the BBC to increase the diversity of its radio programming, if that is something you'd like to see happen.
