Require UK citizens fighting for foreign military be vetted before return to UK

Closed 33 signatures

What the petition asks

We think British citizens who fight with another country’s armed forces should be psychologically assessed for PTSD, which we are concerned could lead to violent behaviour in society. We think this should happen before being granted re-entry into the UK.
