They shoot down literally every petition.

Every government does. I can't think of a single law that exists because people signed a petition and not because there was massive social unrest surrounding the issue.

If signing petitions led to anything, they wouldn't let you sign them.

Imagine making a typo in your summary that exchanges the United Kingdom for the United States, creating a literal hallucination of what the UK government response says lol

It is not completely struck down, as Ross points out on his channel. There is still value in signing if you live in the UK, especially as they once again did not understand the petition.

Not even a corporate stooge, the in charge is just an idiot!

They basically sent the same response as last time. They didn't even read the new petition.
