Referendum on the UK to be neutral on Ukraine and end all bilateral agreements

Closed 2,313 signatures

What the petition asks

We urge the Government to hold a national referendum on the UK being neutral in the war between Ukraine and Russia, and withdrawing from all bilateral agreements with Ukraine. We believe in peace and that the UK's involvement in foreign wars must end.
We believe the UK has taken sides in the conflict without a mandate from the public. The UK has committed £12.8 billion to Ukraine since February 2022, plus £3bn per year, whilst many in the public have been affected by tax rises, spending cuts, and higher costs of energy and living, which we believe are largely due to the UK's policies towards Ukraine. We believe the sanctions against Russia have worked against the UK and the UK should stop supporting Ukraine.
