I just received this email saying that the response "did not respond directly to the request of the petition"

You recently signed the petition “Require videogame publishers to keep games they have sold in a working state”: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/659071

The Petitions Committee (the group of MPs who oversee the petitions system) has considered the Government’s response to this petition. They felt the response did not respond directly to the request of the petition. They have therefore asked the Government to provide a revised response.

When the Committee receives a revised response from the Government, we will publish this and share it with you.

Thanks, The Petitions team UK Government and Parliament

And your suggestion is what exactly?

Turn back time and don't leave the union that actually does pro-consumer things?

Realistically that is actually the only option.

Turning back time but just hoping that the EU implements something. Then we all get to benefit from the Brussels effect. There really isn't anything that we can do.

The best we can hope for is we can vote for whoever is necessary in your constituency to get the Tories out, and hope that Labour care, but they probably won't.
