All petitions on the UK Government and Parliament website can only be voted on once, and only by British citizens and UK residents.
It seems that the majority of the British public strongly disagree with some of the comments written on here 
Toy-soldier, Kizzy and JoshBB's, I've read all your posts on this thread and commend all three of you for sticking it out in such a small minority group. Its comforting to understand that most of us Brits think like you do  |
Thank you DR, it just goes to show that is the true British spirit to be compassionate and empathic to those in desperation and needing our help.
