Change foreign policy so the UK is neutral and not aligned with the West

Closed 108 signatures

What the petition asks

We demand the government declare Britain a neutral state in what we see as a new cold war among global superpowers. We believe that neutrality will protect British interests, safeguard our national security, and uphold our tradition of diplomacy and peacekeeping in an increasingly polarised world.
We think the world is entering a new phase of global tension, with increasing confrontations between major powers. In our view the UK is at risk of becoming entangled in these geopolitical conflicts. We propose a neutral stance that would prioritise British security, protect our economy, and allow Britain to serve as a mediator, promoting diplomacy and peace on the international stage.

We think Britain is no longer a super power on the level of America, China, or Russia.
