CLOSE HOLIDAY PARKS AND CAMPSITES

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I live in the South West whats the point of closing shops, bars, hotels and restaurants. When people can just holiday in caravans and campsites.

Something needs to be done and they need to be forced to close.

Save lives and stay indoors
Close down holiday parks, caravan and campsites.

These people are walking our high streets and not stopping indoor. Instead just being on a normal holiday, putting our community at risk.

Protect our community. Say NO to any paid stays unless its key workers to carry out work commitments.

Why it was rejected

The UK Government or Parliament was already taking the action it asked for.

Since this petition was started, the Government has issued guidance on further businesses and premises to close. The Government has said that exemptions apply where people live permanently in caravan parks or are staying in caravan parks as interim abodes where their primary residence is not available.
