Review lockdown on fishing at fisheries
Rejected
21 signatures
What the petition asks
Please review the ban on fishing at fisheries, I am a avid carp fisherman and we Social distance more then most anglers.
All it takes is the fisheries to provide bacterial wipes for the gates and toilet facilities, anglers only touch there own equipment and most swims are 8-10feet apart. If you can set ground rules we will abide by them, a lot of us anglers use fishing for mental health. It’s our exercise and break from reality, which is very much needed.
Why it was rejected
The UK Government or Parliament was already taking the action it asked for.
