Rejected petition No £1.7 billion for resettling refugees. Use for NHS and homeless first.

The government plan to spend £1.7 billion on resettling refugees in the UK. This petition requests funds should be used on vital NHS operations that 'can't be funded' quick enough and the homeless problem spreading throughout the UK. This move presents a lack of humanity shown by our own government.
