What the petition asks

This country should not let go its reputation of tolerance! We do not want to be a closed society. We want an inclusive society which is based around humanity and compassion for those in need. As a nation, we should be proud to provide shelter and support to those who require it.
The media rhetoric has led many to believe that terrorism will increase because our borders are open. There is no factual evidence to support the direct correlation between open borders and an influx of terrorism. We should keep our borders open to maintain our relationship with the rest of the World.
