Only grant asylum to citizens of immediate neighbouring countries

Closed 72 signatures

What the petition asks

Only grant asylum to people who are citizens from our immediate neighbouring countries. Such as a French national or an Irish national.
We think we should only accept asylum applications if they are citizens of our immediate neighbours such as Ireland. We think that if asylum seekers have crossed several safe countries, they are not seeking just a safe house but are taking advantage of our kindness.
