Rejected petition To grant asylum status to all LGBTQ Bruneians applicants

In light of the recent laws passed in Brunei allowing LGBTQ people to be sentenced to death by stoning as well as other harsh corporal punishments.
We request that the U.K. government grants asylum status to all Bruneian LGBTQ citizens.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. People can already claim asylum if they have left their country and are unable to go back because they fear persecution.
