The UK to print it's own currency and disband central banks.

Rejected 18 signatures

What the petition asks

The UK currently borrows it's currency from a private owned bank. We need a resource backed economy. We can print our own currency completely FREE

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We're not quite sure what you would like the UK Government or Parliament to do. The UK only has one central bank, the Bank of England, so we are not sure what you mean by "disband central banks".

We are also not sure exactly what you mean when you say that "The UK currently borrows it's currency from a private owned bank."

If you could start a petition with a clearer request for action, we could look at this again.
