Petition The UK should do more in the Western Sahara

More details

The UK has been ignoring the Western Sahara for too long. As the government have been active in other area, they sit by and let the worst abuses take hold in Western Sahara.

The UK government should put pressure on the Moroccan government to hold the promised referendum on independence within 2 years.

The UK should use it's position on the Security Council to propose dedicated Human Rights monitoring on the MINURSO mission.

The UK should revoke all trade agreements with Morocco as their conduct in the Western Sahara breaches EU law.
