This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Rejected petition Theft of metals and destruction of Infrastucture
More details
The UK Infrastructure is under attack from unscrupulous metal thieves, with no respect for the UK Infrastructure or UK Heritage.
The punishment for damaging infrastructure including telephone, railway, Churches, Monuments, should be based on the full cost of reinstatement, and inconvenience cost to the public. Not just the intrinsic value of the scrap metals stolen.
