Declare a National Emergency over illegal immigration via the English Channel

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

To declare a national emergency at our borders as the USA have done. This is illegal migration, entering our country illegally. This need to stop.
They are coming from a safe and secure country, no need to come here. They are unchecked and undocumented posing a severe security risk to this country. The Government have a duty of care to its citizens, doing nothing should result in the government standing down and making way for a government that will protect its citizens from an illegal invasion.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

It is not clear what you mean in regards to the UK Government declaring a national emergency and what sort of impact you would like this to have.

You could start petition calling for the Government to be given emergency powers to address illegal immigration, if that's what you'd like.
