Stop Theresa May granting Scotland Yard another £95k to find Madeleine McCann.

Rejected 18 signatures

What the petition asks

Police have been given nearly £95,000 to continue search for McCann, who went missing on May 3, 2007. This is complete waste of resources and could be better off spend elsewhere.

Why it was rejected

There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.
