What the petition asks
Help me take this to the parliament!! Every time a sex offender creates a sex offence they should get life in prison not " life" which is only limited years. They should be made to serve their time.
Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
