Prioritise Christian families for asylum places in the UK

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

Every day we hear about the struggle that Syrian refugees face, Christians however face more dangerous than Muslim refugees. Christians in that part of the world are being persecuted, killed, raped, sold into slavery and much more they deserve to be helped.
We are a Christian country so they will integrate easier into our society.
