What the petition asks
We call on the Government to increase mandatory minimum sentences for “honour”-based killings, and make it mandatory for schools to teach students about it.
We believe raising awareness of “honour”-based killings and the available support systems for those affected could help people to know that they are not alone.
We need the Governments massive influential status to shine light on the crime and with your help we can make sure these heinous acts come to an end.
