Stop providing security for Tony Blair's Overseas commitments

Closed 139 signatures

What the petition asks

Taxpayers are still footing Tony Blairs huge police protection bill. In some cases 12 Metropolitan Officers are involved at a cost to the tax payer of upto £16,000.00 per week. This equates to an enormous amount of money over the past 6 years.
His firm, Tony Blair Associates has made vast amounts of money over the past 6 years, and both his private and commercial work has taken him all over the world with round the clock protection, to which he should at least make a substantial contribution.
