Rejected petition Britian should only take refuges in the form of woman, children and the elderly.

With the ever-growing immigration problem throughout Europe in the form of refugees from Syria especially; we think it is in the best interest for the security Great Britain & its people that the entry number of refugees is limited & that only women, children & the elderly be eligible for asylum.

More details

Fighting age males (18-40) should be staying to defend their homeland. We have seen many photos of large, well built men stepping of refugee boats & the seizure of containers full of weapons labelled as furniture which were on there way to a refugee camp in September. We Britons should be looking at the safety & defence of our own country & people before all others. We suggest refugees be granted temporary asylum status & should be returned to their own countries once peace has been declared.
