End the Special Relationship with America.

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

Following the election of Mr Trump it is no longer appropriate for the UK to be associated with America in a Special Relationship. The US should remove all American bases from the UK, and cease to hold sovereignty over military assets based in the UK including Trident and any Trident replacement.
Any trade deals with the US should be reexamined.
We condemn the racist, misogynistic, bigoted comments made by Mr Trump, and extend our sympathies to the American people. We urge calmness in reaction to this most troubling event on the world stage.
We plead with all nations denigrated by Mr Trump to avoid a military response for the benefit of the peoples of planet earth.
Mr Trump has not behaved in a statesmanlike manner, accordingly, the global community must do so on his behalf.
