What the petition asks
I believe that the islamic state flag is avdvertising the terrorist group and should be banned in the UK
Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
We can't accept your petition because it is already a criminal offence to carry or display articles in public in such a way as arouse reasonable suspicion that an individual is a supporter of an organisation such as ISIS.

We therefore unsure what further action you would like the UK Government or Parliament to take.
