Petitions submitted in August 2016

All the petitions which were submitted in August 2016, irrespective of whether they were accepted or rejected, sorted by submission date from newest to oldest.

Note that petitions will only show in this list once they have been either accepted or rejected. Petitions still waiting to be checked are not made public until they have completed the moderation process. That's because publishing them before then would defeat the object of the support gathering phase, as well as risking the inadvertant publication of something defamatory or otherwise unlawful.
