What the petition asks
Theresa May in the Position of Home Secretary has mislead the British public over her desire to privatise policing and there is a clear conflict of interest over her actions.
The British Public clearly believe that the Home Secretary is not acting in the public interest in privatising the Police. Her husband has a financial interest in G4s and given the Prime Minister promised the British Public he would clean up Parliament he sits by and allows this blatant abuse of public power. The Home Secretary previously hired Tom Windsor to start the demise of Policing and as a reward was made HMIC and Knighted .
