Freeze Qatari assets in the UK until Qatar expels Hamas leaders

What the petition asks
We want the Government to freeze the approximately £40 billion Qatari assets in the UK until Qatar expels leaders of the terrorist group, Hamas, and hands them in. Qatar appears to allow Hamas to operate out of Doha and gives sanctuary to Hamas leaders.
The UK helped to freeze more than £48 billion in Russian assets when Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022. We want the same to be done to Qatar as we believe they are enabling the terrorist group Hamas.
