Make going to war a democratic choice by the people of the UK.

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

I believe that going to war is such a major thing, causing death and destruction, that we as a country should get to vote. It will be our money paying for the war, bombs/planes, and we spend billions of pounds, and the government is currently cutting all of our public services.

I believe that the people of this country are able to make up their own minds with regards to going to war. In recent history we have been lied to about the reasons we have gone to war, which is quite simply, unacceptable.

If the government has a particular issue it will have to put that across to us. Hopefully in a responsible, non-scaremongering way.
