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. We understand you'd like to make the Lords an elected chamber, but we're not sure from your petition as written how you'd like elections to work and who would be eligible.

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