Subject the deployment of any non-UK nuclear weapons in the UK to a referendum

Closed 37 signatures

What the petition asks

We call on the Government to make any deployment of non-UK nuclear weapons, or other weapons of mass destruction, in the UK to be subject to the sovereign will of the British public by way of a referendum.
We do not believe that British people should face any risks caused by overseas wars and acts of aggression that we have no control over.
