What the petition asks
Help the British residents and tax payers, originally from, and the citizens of the Republic of Moldova to protect their rights to freedom of expression and particularly vote in the Moldovan democratic elections at polling stations in the UK.
It is widely believed by the British-Moldovan community living in the UK that they are not given their democratic rights assured by their home country, Republic of Moldova. Specifically, the issue related to the limited amount of ballot papers available at the polling stations in the UK. A lot of people have not been able to vote in the recent presidential elections due to the lack of ballot papers.
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
