This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Rejected petition Provide homeless ex-service personnel with a home before immigrants and refugees
Up to 9,000 British heroes who served Queen and country are homeless after leaving the military.
More details
The Government must look after them unstintingly, because whatever the cost to the taxpayer, it will be less than the debt we owe them.
The vast majority of servicemen make a good transition back into civilian life. Some do not and sometimes this is due to the life they led in the service of their country. Those who are physically or mentally damaged by their experiences fighting for us deserve our support in return.
