Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

Consider what the other counties are doing and the fact it is working for them.
In my opinion the government is just not doing enough and more needs to happen in order to protect the British public

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're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. It's clear that you're concerned about the Government's response to coronavirus, but it's not clear exactly what action you'd like the Government or Parliament to take.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you'd like to happen. If you want the Government to implement a lockdown, you may wish to publish this petition instead:

Implement UK lockdown for preventing spread of COVID19
