Closed petition End all military support and arm sales to Saudi Arabia

Closed on 14 October 2021

I ask the Government to stop selling weapons and military vehicles to Saudi Arabia, and to stop providing military support for them in their war in Yemen. And as an alternative, work towards a diplomatic solution to end the nearly six year-long war in Yemen.

The war in Yemen is currently the worst humanitarian crisis in the world today. The Saudi military has waged indiscriminate bombing campaigns, where they've hit mosques, open-air markets, hospitals, and a school bus filled with 40 children. Not only that, but Saudi Arabia have blocked foreign aid going into the country, while Yemeni civilians are struggling to deal with Covid-19 and an outbreak of cholera. Our contribution to this can no longer be justified.
