Condemn the decision to bulldoze the church and mosque in the Calais "jungle"

Closed 294 signatures

What the petition asks

The church and mosque are focal points for refugees, helping to keep their spirits up in inhumane circumstances. By bulldozing their faith centres, the French government hopes to demoralise and fragment the residents, causing their dispersal, and a 'solution' to the visible refugee problem
