Don't let Syrian refugees into Britain

Closed 361 signatures

What the petition asks

I am against the influx of refugees into Britain, and this must stop.
It's only human to sympathise with the plight of people who are suffering in their home country, who would risk death to leave and find a safer life. However, I have spent 30 years of my life seeing images of Ethiopian children, bent double, a bag of bones DYING of dehydration, starvation and preventable diseases. I have seen under 12s working for a living, in sweat shops, doing back breaking work. There are wars, famine, injustices everywhere, even in Britain. That is sad, but that is life.
