Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

Manchester has a bill for the services of the terrorist bomb attack of £17 million, this bill is for all the services Police, Ambulance, Nurses, Doctors etc, the UK government promised to pay the bill for this. Now 5 months on the government has backtracked and decided they will not pay.
Manchester and the whole of the UK was shocked by what happened in Manchester on this terrible night. The people of Manchester are not asking for much but to pay for all the services in the wake of this disaster please sign this petition and do what is right not only for Manchester but for the UK as a whole. The government promised days after the attack that the bill would be paid and it now seems once again that not only the people of Manchester have been let down but the country as a whole.
