Petition Stop involvement in the Afghan, Syrian and Iraqi Wars and bring troops home

Our involvement as the UK to stop the ongoing wars is the problem. People are unhappy that we are continuously involved in the different wars and spending too much money on the wars when we could spend it on something useful in the UK. This is a major problem and could assist other campaigns

More details

We are spending a net amount of at least £20.3 billion just until 2010 (combined of only the cost of the afghan and Iraqi war).Many sources state that we are spending at least 37 billion by 2017 a statement by guardian stated “By 2020, Britain will have spent at least £40bn on its Afghan campaign, enough to recruit over 5,000 police officers or nurses and pay for them throughout their careers. It could fund free tuition for all students in British higher education for 10 years."
