This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We are not aware of any UK combat troops in Syria.

Earl Howe, Minster of State for the Ministry of Defence, told Parliament on 20 July 2015 that "In accordance with a decision of the House of Commons on 26 September 2014 we have been involved in coalition operations against ISIL in Iraq, and we have supported our allies in their operations against ISIL in Syria—notably in surveillance operations."

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