Stop the refurb of Buckingham palace and wasting over £300m of public funds

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

This is a major issue when you consider the number of families using food banks, the state of the NHS, the care our elderly get and the number of homeless people we have. Wasting over £300m to refurb the house of one of the richest women in the country is an absolute disgrace.

Why it was rejected

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

Do not make the British taxpayer pay for the renovation of Buckingham Palace!
