Rejected petition MPs who voted in favour of bombing Syria should spend a day on the ground there

In 2003, millions of people in the UK protested against the Iraq war. Still we went to war, what was achieved?

We don't have the funding for hospitals but have enough to bomb Syria? The budget cuts have devastated families and communities, but supposedly we still have enough to bomb Syria?

More details

We want the MPs who made this abhorrent decision spend a day on the ground in Syria to see the results of their actions.

The Iraq war, the Libyan intervention, the Afghanistan bombardment, killed over a million people and what was achieved? We should learn from our mistakes. With this decision we are putting the United Kingdom at risk, it's common sense!

The taxpayers in this country should decide what is done with their money. What happened to the UK being a democratic country? Sign now!

Why was this petition rejected?

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

This would be an individual decision for the MPs concerned, not the responsibility of Parliament as a whole.

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