Relocate critical U.K. Facilities and resources from Scotland to rest of U.K.

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

Scotlands First Minister has called for yet another highly divisive and disruptive independence referendum. It was timed to be as caustic for the whole UK as possible. The rest of the UK now needs to protect itself against the possibility she is successful & move critical facilities out of Scotland.

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 that they are able to deliver, and your petition does not set out what you mean by "critical facilities and resources". You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
