Allow government to use latest lottery Jackpots to help battle with COVID-19

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I strongly believe that health is more important than any money especially in situation that we are in right now. Money counted in millions could help government to help those in need.
No evidence needed.

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 whether you would like the Government to confiscate lottery prizes, or whether you would like the lottery to be run without winners, which may affect the number of people willing to take part.

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