Stop unregistered charity organisations collecting for military & veterans.

What the petition asks

Currently there are organisations allegedly collecting on behalf of military and veterans who are not charities or declaring the percentage of donations and to who they are donating.
There are currently investigations taking place around the UK into these so called charities. They are taking the publics money on the pretence of supporting military & veteran causes. Then not declaring what they are actually donating,which is very little or nothing. This should be classed as fraudulent representation and made illegal.
