What the petition asks
Afghan interpreters who served with the UK Armed Forces on Op HERRICK are currently at risk of deportation from the UK. If sent to Afghanistan they will likely be killed by the Taliban. We ask the Govt to grant Afghan interpreters and their families citizenship and the right to remain in the UK.
