Pay reparations to British citizens of Palestinian origin

Closed 86 signatures

What the petition asks

Introduce legislation to give compensation to all British citizens of Palestinian origin, who have come to the UK since 1948.
The Palestinian people have endured much over 75 years. Many continue to lose loved ones in Gaza and have been uprooted and displaced from their ancestral land and homes.

We believe the British government are wholly responsible for the situation in Palestine.

The British government signed the Balfour declaration which enabled the creation of the state of Israel, which we believe has come at the expense of the Palestinian people.

We want the British government to pay compensation to all British citizens of Palestinian origin, who have come to the UK since 1948.
