massively reduce the prices of female sanitary products

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Having females pay for sanitary products is discusting.
Without women having access to these products they may become severely Ill and even die.
This is not good enough.
In a world created by women, this MUST change.
(Written by a man)

Why it was rejected

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

This would be a decision for retailers and not the UK Government or Parliament.

You might like to consider signing one of these petitions:

Get rid of the 5% luxury tax that women have to pay on sanitary products.
Sanitary products must become free of charge to all young women 18 or under.
