What the petition asks
In June/July 2018 British nationals voluntarily played a key role in the multinational efforts to free 12 children and their football coach who were stranded deep within the Tham Luang cave system in Northern Thailand. Their extraordinary selflessness, bravery and courage should be recognised.
