Rejected petition Stop the EU denying right of asylum to refugees by building internment camps.

The EU is aiming to deny the right of asylum to innumerable refugees by funding and building camps for them in Africa & elsewhere, outside the European Union.

Once the proposed system of refugee camps outside the EU is in place, asylum claims from inside the camps would be inadmissible in Europe.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

The UK Government does not have responsibility for the whole of Europe. You could submit a petition asking for the Government to "put pressure on" or "urge" the EU to take a certain action.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
