Rejected petition Make e petitions more effective
More details
This petition is to make epetitions that actually do recieve over 10,000 signatures more effective.
Every petition on here that I see that has way over 10,000 signatures simple gets a response off of the government with a big "No." Every time. I simply think that's wrong.
Citizens should get more of a say, this is the only place that does that and yet it gets ignored.
I think whatever gets over the votes scale should be raising a debate in parliment and they should be edging more towards a "Yeah, let's go for it" because the majority of society have said so. Doing this would lower everybody's big hate of the government and their stubborn ways.
I wnat the government to make a bigger deal about these petitions. I want the government to do more of what society wants. I want the government to say yes a lot more to what society wants.
