Prevent the United Kingdom from taking military action in Syria

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Theresa May, without the backing of Parliament, wishes to take military action in Syria - a conflict we as a nation do not need to involve ourselves. As the leader of this country, her first objective should be the protection of its people and their futures. This very action threatens that.
We don't have money for:
-NHS
-Education
-Police
-Fire service
-the elderly
-the disabled.

We have money for:
-Bombing people in other countries with missiles that cost £1,000,000 each.

We did not vote Theresa into power, and we do not support this decision. History has taught us that war only results in deaths, how many times will this mistake be made?
