What the petition asks
We'd like a formative and respectful debate in the House of Commons in an attempt to gauge whether the problems we are currently facing could've been stopped or halted a lot quicker, and whether the Chinese government has been transparent in the information it has published about the outbreak.
We wish no discrimination to the citizens of China or the great people who have come from China who contribute greatly to our economy and society, but believe the House of Commons should debate these issues.
