There must be an emergency referendum on any further bombings in Syria.

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

Parliament has voted to authorise the bombing of Isis in Syria. This is an action which will endanger civilian lives in Syria itself, further cultural and religious division in the wider world and fuel radical extremism in any form. Let the citizens of the U.K. vote on this issue directly.
