Rejected petition Cease trading with China until their Muslim concentration camps are dismantled
The Chinese Communist Party has been building concentration camps for their minority Uighur Muslim community. This is one of the biggest human rights abuses in modern times. Millions are detained.
This government must immediately cease trading until they are destroyed and detainees freed.
More details
This country has long thought itself to hold freedom and diversity as core values and as a global superpower we must not allow China to get away with one of the biggest human rights abuses in modern times. Millions of Uighur Muslims are being detained, with the US President recently expressing approval for these camps, telling Chinese president Xi Jinping it is 'absolutely the right thing to do'. If china refuses to stop, we must cease trading with China, and publicly denounce their actions
