What the petition asks

Britain must save money,especially before uncertain times like BREXIT, when ID CHECKS at hospitals are proposed,the question is,why's BURMA set to receive £118 million from the British taxpayer
when clearly committing crimes against humanity,
and addressing it is the responsibility of all humanity
PM meeting with Burmese State Counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi: 13/09/16 -Downing Street spokesperson said: "The Prime Minister said we stood ready to provide further assistance as Burma continues to develop, including through £118 million in support this year."

Yale study suggested that the abuse of the more than one million Rohingya may amount to genocide;a confidential United Nations report to the Security Council says it may constitute “crimes against humanity under international criminal law.”
