A police group on social media to tackle trolls and groups that target charities

Rejected 12 signatures

What the petition asks

We would like the government to invest more into social policing.
Essentially Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.
I have been targeted by a group of ladies and their who friends, who cause major racist issues, troll people to suicide and they then cry wolf so they look like victims.

Charities, companies and individuals have been targeted by this group for years.
The time has come to have a police team that can easily be contacted, they patrol social media so they can deal with issues directly as it happens.
Racism, hate and criminals are on both sides of society, not just one.
This needs dealing with, its now time to do this, correctly.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. This is an operational decision for the police.

We could accept a petition calling for changes to the law, such as creating new criminal offences for trolling, if that's what you'd like to see happen.
