Police immunity for “Tactical Contact” against Moped Gangs

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Crime in this country is on the up. People scream out for people to do more and when the Police start showing the tactics of combatting these criminals there are still people who still have a problem with it. I fully believe this is a great tactic and is working as moped crime is down by over 30%
Get behind this and show support it’s effective and is as good as reasonable force.

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 UK Government or Parliament to take specific action.

We aren't sure exactly what you would like the UK Government or Parliament to do. In particular, we are not sure what you would like the police to have immunity from.

You could start a new petition setting out clearly the change you would like to see.
