Make touting and reselling event tickets above face value illegal
Rejected

What the petition asks
I hate waking up early to buy event tickets online only to find out that the events have sold out and minutes later the tickets are on resale sites for hundreds of pounds. The government keep saying that they are going to tackle this issue but when are they actually going to do something about this?
