Rejected petition Stop Arms Transfers to Saudi Arabia and the UAE

As citizens of the UK we call upon the government to completely suspend arms sales to the Saudi-led coalition which continues to mercilessly bomb Yemen. Despite going to court and shamefully seeking to appeal the decision AGAINST exporting arms to Saudi Arabia and the UAE.

More details

The United Kingdom officially supports the Saudi-led coalition blockade of Yemen through arms transfers made to the Saudi government. This blockade has been compounded by numerous other issues such as flooding, COVID-19, and an economic crisis to name a few. This has resulted in the world's worst humanitarian crisis with 4/5 of the Yemeni population at risk.
