Amend the legal aid funding to only those who have British Citizenship
Rejected
21 signatures
What the petition asks
Those people who have been stripped of British Citizenship, their family or agents should not be allowed access to Legal Aid. It is not fair to those with British Citizenship who cannot currently access funding in this Country.
No money should be spent on any person without British Citizenship.
