Stop plans to give military plane £900,000 makeover during COVID-19 pandemic

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

The government must stop insensitive plans to paint Union Jack on a military plane under the proviso it is ‘good for the UK’. This plan must be scrapped! There are other more beneficial uses of taxpayers money during a global pandemic.

Given people have lost jobs, family members and cannot afford to eat this is a massively insensitive way to use taxpayers money. This will not further the UKs image to the world, it merely demonstrates how out of touch they are with current issues within the county and globally.

Why it was rejected

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

By the time your petition was started, the plane had already been painted. It's not clear what action can be taken now.
