Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

The repeated failures by the CPS in sexual offences has meant innocent men put through hell for months. It has undermined public confidence in the justice system which will deter victims making complaints, encourage juries to acquit and innocent men to be wrongly charged thus affecting all sides.

Why it was rejected

It was about honours or appointments, which petitions cannot cover.

We can't accept petitions about appointments, which includes calling for someone to be sacked.
