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 exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. We're not sure if you want furlough payments, for people who are temporarily unable to work, or for payments for people who have been made redundant during the pandemic.

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