Independently investigate and reinstate the Arbroath RNLI lifeboat Crew

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Due to media misreporting this crew has been failed by the RNLI who have over reacted to an out of hours incident. The loss of a vital lifeboat for the town of Arbroath is significant and against the core values of the RNLI. The community of Arbroath must have a voice in this important decision.

Why it was rejected

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

This is the responsibility of the RNLI, not the UK Government or Parliament.
