Child abuses should face long sentences such murderers, drug dealer's

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Action is needed as child abuses and rapists ruin people's lives. People feel broken and worthles and many will need medical treatment many years after the initial assults. People suffer in silence as not many people really understand the abuse/rape/assaults

Why it was rejected

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

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you're concerned about sentences for crimes against children, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
