Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

As we have seen by the numerous and recent terror attacks purported by Muslim extremists we are under great threat, and need to take more safety measures to secure our people's security. Bans on travel to countries with known Islamic Terrorist backgrounds, should be enforced to prevent.....
previously unknown terrorists from legally returning or entering the uk after a period of time in said country. This shall at least provide some moral among the british public that something is tackling the problem at it's root source for the time being, Then we can focus upon home grown radicalized terrorists.

Why it was rejected
