Re Introduce the specialist motorcycle theft unit,

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I have been the target of motorcyle theft, and since then I've noticed a Massive surge in bike theft, please reintroduce a specialist motorcycle theft team,

Why it was rejected

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

We're sorry to hear you've been a victim of crime.

Operational decisions for police forces are not a matter for the UK Government or Parliament.

You could start a petition requiring the Government to increase funding for investigating motorcycle theft, or to increase penalties for the crime.
