What the petition asks
The Armed Forces Covenant 2015 is a promise from the Nation to those who serve or have served in The Armed Forces and their Families to be treated fairly and should suffer no disadvantage due to their service. This promise is not being upheld Nationwide , the only recourse is for it to be made Law
The Armed Forces Covenant has much to offer Serving & Veterans of HMF unfortunately upholding the Covenant across United Kingdom is very inconsistent to the point in some areas of the Country it is not even acknowledged by local Government,NHS, ect causing some Veterans to become homeless and many others to continue to suffer injuries both physical & mental without adequate help or treatment at the moment enforcement of the Armed Forces Covenant is optional not Law a `promise` is not working .
