Remove people on the terror watch list from the UK

Closed 4,758 signatures

What the petition asks

In 2020, the Home Office said there were over 40,000 people where MI5 judged there was some risk of them re-engaging in terrorist activity. We think people on this list who are in the UK should be deported, to keep people in the UK safe.
People in the UK should be safe in their own country and we think having potential terrorists among us isn’t safe. We feel we are under threat. We think we should not have to live like this, and that the government has a duty to protect the people of this country.
