Encourage Cannock chase council to invest in Rugeley and other areas.

Rejected 18 signatures

What the petition asks

We want fair treatment from Cannock Chase Council, we feel the local council as over looked Rugeley and other communities in the area, and as received very little investment over many years, all investment seems to be focused on facilities & the encouragement of businesses to the Cannock town area.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
