Ban US chicken in the UK...

Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

The standards of rearing, slaughtering and packing of chicken in the US is much lower than here in the UK and Europe
The US has a much higher incidence of food poisoning than we currently have here in the UK. That will change if we import their chicken. We must not allow that to happen. Their chicken must be banned from entering the UK

Why it was rejected

There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.

Do not lower UK food standards just to ease trade deals post Brexit
