Petition Action

Petition to close down the e-petitions site.

Additional Information

Almost every e-petition reads like the front pages of an ultra right wing tabloid, they bear little logic or reasoning and are naught but reactionary sentiments on current (However long-standing) popular issues. The electorates feelings on which could be better gauged by talking directly to them. The e-petitions website only stands as a firm reminder why we have educated elected representatives, so we can avoid such base drivel as spewed here.

The money saved by closing the site, could be better spent on something more important, like water pollution or regional development.

This petition was rejected

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.
