BROIGAS Boycott Republic Of Ireland Goods And Services

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

The Republic of Ireland are proposing legislation which would make it a criminal offence offence with a penalty of €250,000 to purchase products originating from certain areas within Israel

Why it was rejected

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

We can't accept your petition because you seem to be calling for action from UK consumers and not the UK Government or Parliament. The UK Government and Parliament is not responsible for organising boycotts.

You could start a new petition calling on the UK Government to urge the Irish Government to oppose the law on goods from Israeli settlements that has been proposed in the Irish Senate if that is something you would like to see happen.
