Change The House Of Lords into The House Of Representatives.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

The House of Lords should be reformed into The House of Representatives as The House of Lords is very unrepresentative to the diversity in the United Kingdom.

Currently we as the British public have no say over who represents us in the House of Lords, which is unfair because as a democratic society we should be able to vote on who represents us. This is why we want to petition to change the House of Lords into the House of Representatives as we would be able to have a say over who represents us.

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.

We're not sure what you mean by "House of Representatives".

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, your petition could call for the members of the Hour of Lords to be elected, if that's what you would like to happen.
