What the petition asks
Following some ongoing development plans for some of my city's parks its been rumored that lead Councillors have business and family links with the developer. This strikes me as a conflict of interest, bordering on corruption, i'd like the police to have more scope to investigate further.
Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
You may wish to submit a further petition setting out exactly which additional powers you would like the police to be given.
