Make it Law for online retailers to label country of manufacture and despatch
Rejected

What the petition asks
With the over reliance of products from a communist state it is very difficult to determine where a product is manufactured and despatched from, I call for online retailers to legally have to place in a prominent position on the items description where the item was made and despatched from.
Having this information will allow us to make informed decisions on what countries we would like to support allowing us to support poorer countries and avoiding those countries that have a toxic political structure..
