Rejected on Tuesday 4th November 2025
Current status: Rejected
Rejection code: duplicate (see below for details)
All petitions that reach over 1 million signatures must go to public vote.
Petitions are there to give the public a voice, and so should be properly considered by the public, via a democratic vote. When 1 million+ people express concerns via petition, then it should be taken to the public to judge. The final decision should not be made by politicians, but by the public.
This government and the 2 governments before it, have made decisions without considering public mood or opinion, but by ignoring us and doing as they please. This has led to the public being ignored
The public petition the government for change and to express their voice. But instead of doing their job by doing as the public is asking (which is their job), they shut down our concerns and tell us we're wrong. They then proceed against public wishes with their plan.
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.
You may wish to sign this petition, which calls for similar action: "Hold referendum if a petition reaches over 650,000 signatures" petition.parliament.uk/petitions/743620
