We ask the Government to use extreme vetting for potential terrorists visitors.

Rejected 18 signatures

What the petition asks

It is in Britains interest to welcome President Trump of the USA. He has introduced extreme vetting for visitors from dangerous countries and we ask the British Government to do the same in order to protect British citizens.
President Trump is doing his best to defend the USA from terrorists masquerading as visitors. He is rebuilding the structure and the productivity of his country and will create jobs and success for many who are now unemployed and without a home. He doesn't want the USA to become like Europe where terrorists can simply walk in and murder who they wish.
