Zero tolerance on hate crimes.

Rejected 19 signatures

What the petition asks

The scenes of hate crime post Brexit are unacceptable. For us all to move on together, united, we must make it clear that hate crimes are exactly that: a crime. We ask that the government stamps down on the 57% rise in recent hate crimes with a zero tolerance policy!
