What the petition asks
The house of lords serves us no purpose. It's a money pit with unelected lords. Anything going forward in the future should be voted through the public or elected people.
Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you're concerned about the future of the House of Lords, but we're not sure exactly what you'd it to be abolished or reformed so members are elected.
You may wish to sign one of these open petitions instead:
Abolish the house of lords
Reform the House of Lords, Make the House of Lords an elected house.
