What the petition asks
Ask the Government to back a campaign promoting the idea that Santa only brings small stocking gifts, not main presents. This would make Christmas fairer, ease pressure on parents, and help all children share the same festive magic.
Government support would help spread a fair, inclusive message that Santa only brings stockings. This national campaign could reach schools, parents, and media, easing pressure on families and reducing feelings of inequality among children. It’s a positive, voluntary way to make Christmas fair for all.
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
