Can someone not raise a new petition calling for the abolition of organisations dedicated to submitting petitions?
I once thought it a good idea that we could directly petition the government about issues that were important to the population at large, but it has now become a burgeoning industry that relies upon its ability to concoct petitions conning the gullible public into supporting issues that are often drivel and usually poorly thought out.
I have unsubscribed to all such organisations, but still get messages from some, who blatantly ignore the fact that I no longer wish to gear from them.
Unfortunately I have a brother-in-law, who is totally smitten by these organisations and assails me every day (sometimes several times in a day) with totally rubbish that I have no intention supporting. I would like to unfriend him, but feel it might cause family friction if I do.
Mike.
