UK Government must offer South Africans of European descent a "right to return"

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

With South African white farmers being raped and murdered on a near daily basis while South African government officials openly declaring they will be taking land without compensation, South Africans of European descent are facing a bleak future and possible genocide.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

People from South Africa are already able to apply for a visa to live and work in the UK, so we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
