What the petition asks
The Government should raise concerns about the treatment of Britons of Kurdish ethnicity by Turkish border guards and airports with the Turkish Government. Britons whose birthplace bears the word Kurdistan on their passports should not be unfairly detained or deported back to the U.K.
It’s the British Government’s duty to defend and support Brits from the risk of inhuman treatment abroad.
