Law that British public have a vote on how the country deals with immigration.

Rejected 19 signatures

What the petition asks

Make it a law that the British public have a say on how many refugees and immigrants
We allow into great Britain.
We feel that there is not enough housing and job's to accommodate thousands of
Refugees and immigrants. The uk is a small
Island and sooner or later we will run out of room and all our green land will be gone to housing. Due to covid-19 alot of businesses
Have closed and thousands of people are unemployed and looking for work. As a country we can't keep paying out billions in benefits sooner or later the money will run
Out.

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 understand you'd like a referendum related to immigration, but we're not sure what you'd like the vote to choose between.

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