What the petition asks
Withdraw your support to the Israeli Government, given their actions against the Palestinian people. Immediately cease arms sales to the Israeli Government. Formally apologise for the Balfour Declaration, recognise the State of Palestine and provide aid and reparations to its people.
We believe the Balfour Declaration 1917 is a principle cause of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, and that the UK Government is complicit in perpetuating the conflict in Palestine against both Israeli and Palestinian people by supporting the Israeli Government. The UK has supplied in excess of £440m of arms to Israel since 2015. The UK Government cannot continue to support a government that has been found to breach International Law and Human Rights Conventions. Free Palestine.
