Which of the following statements about the launch of E-petitions is CORRECT?
Hundreds of Britons have petitioned their government to reintroduce the death penalty in a new government Internet scheme that was launched Thursday. "E-petitions" that get enough signatures may be debated in parliament. The leader of the House of Commons said Thursday that if enough people call for Britain to restore the death penalty it should be discussed by lawmakers. That could be good news for those who signed the online petition. Ahead of the online petition, Conservative MP Andrew Turner said it’s the "proper punishment" for some serious crimes.
Capital punishment is one of a number of issues that have been petitioned in an online government scheme. Other subjects petitioned were for Britain to leave the European Union and for the absolute right to self-defense in one’s home. (10) Any petition signed by more than 100, 000 British citizens will be considered for future debate in the House of Commons.
The last execution took place in Britain almost five decades ago. But it’s remained a rallying point for some in the British public. Andy Williamson, Director of the Hansard Society’s Digital Democracy program, says he’s not surprised that capital punishment is topping the e-petition.
选项
A、It was launched by the British government.
B、British people petitioned the launch of it.
