What the petition asks

Suspend Parking
It's not fair ..we are in a crisis ..
If people cant work ..then there is obviously more cars being parked at home and permit areas..
This is a time of crisis

Why it was rejected

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

Enforcement of parking restrictions on private land is a matter for landowners, and locally is a matter for local councils, not the UK Government or Parliament.
