Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
This isn't something that the UK Government or Parliament could do. Sentences are the responsibility of the courts, which are independent of the Government and Parliament.
You could start a new petition asking for a specific change in the contempt of court laws, if that’s what you’d like to happen.
