Bring in another emergency lockdown
Rejected
9 signatures
What the petition asks
We want the Government to bring in another extended lockdown to combat the ongoing coronavirus threat. With the spread of new variants and increasing number of cases including a rise in death rates, it is sensible of the Government to enact another lockdown for the safety of the nation.
The Government has an overall remit and mandate to enact covid measures at their most extreme.
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 understand that you are concerned about the spread of Covid-19, and want the Government to implement another lockdown, but there have been a range of restrictions introduced in past lockdowns, and it's not clear what restrictions you want to be introduced - for example, closure of businesses and places of education, requirements to work from home, prohibitions on leaving the home except for essential purposes.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
