Cut off Saudi Arabia as an ally

Rejected 20 signatures

What the petition asks

Saudi Arabia has just executed over 40 innoent people .They could be likened to ISIS in their actions, yet the UK is happy to ally ourselves to such a country, which tarnishes us with the same brush. Let's reject them as an ally until they apologise and change their law.

Why it was rejected

There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.

I want our government to cut all ties and impose sanctions on Saudi Arabia.
