This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament
Rejected petition Fully fund the costs to the Manchester Emergency Services of the MCR Bombing.
On 22 May 2017 at a concert at the Manchester Arena 22 people lost their lives and over 500 more were injured in a terror attack.
The People of Manchester came together to support each other and our brave emergency services.
More details
Some 8 months later the Prime Minister has said she will only pay "reasonable costs" - not the full costs to our emergency services. This would leave our already overstretched services even moreso.
At the time we came together to support those affected, mourn our losses and support our brave emergency services. We come together now to ask the Prime Minister to reverse her decision not to fully fund the extra costs.
