Rejected petition Create a stolen valour act making it illegal to claim your a war veteran.

Stop people claiming to be heroes and say they've fought in battles who take valuable resources away from real heroes who have fought and maybe even injured or those that have lost loved ones they deserve the help more.

More details

So many people have fought in conflicts around the world for the safety & security of our country some have been injured, killed or lost friends. Those that have served find it deplorable that others claim to have done this to portray themselves as heroes and take advantage of charities and real heroes.
