House or accommodate all former service and emergency service homeless personnel

What the petition asks

Accommodate, in hotels, or otherwise, all of our former armed forces and emergency services homeless personnel. The time has come to put them before those arriving at our shores, illegally and on a daily basis. Immigrants require help, but British citizens should receive it first and as a priority.
The brave men and women of our armed forces and emergency services are the one's who take the dreaded step forward at our hour of need. Some of them fall on hard times. It's time the government stepped forward in their hour of need. Tension is building among our great community with regards to suicide and homelessness, and so far, we've had to rely on charities for help. This needs sorting with immediate effect.
