Shut down the UK Government and Parliament Petitions platform

Background

Shut down the petitions site. People speak, you ignore. It gives a false sense of power while decisions are already made. Repeatedly rejecting public opinion with copy-paste replies undermines trust. If it’s just for show, scrap it.

Additional details

The petitions site gives the illusion of public influence, yet responses often ignore the will of tens of thousands. If decisions are already made, why pretend otherwise? The platform now feels like a PR exercise, not a tool of democracy. Shut it down and be honest about it.
