Rejected petition Withdraw Pres Trump's UK invitation unless human rights abuses cease immediately

Rejected on 22 June 2018

President Trump is scheduled to make a state visit to the UK in mid Jul 2018.

The US govt's at the US-Mexico border of separating children and parents of migrant families are unconscionable, violate human rights, and not supported by any constitution, law or scripture.

This is not a call for a blanket ban on the state visit.

This is a call for performing the UK's moral duty as a global superpower to hold its closest ally to account on shared values.
