Closed petition Exempt new UK immigrants from rules on import of invasive species

I am BNO holder & keeping 3 red-eared sliders for 20 years. They are my most important property, which I will not release, trade nor breed. Due to the current situation in Hong Kong, I decided to leave, but the current restrictions on import of invasive species has caused problems.

More details

UK can should exempt new UK immigrants from the restrictions on import of invasive species, such as the red-eared slider. Their import should be allowed, provided the animals are registered and release into nature is prohibited.

Acceptance of immigrants without their pets is also a kind of inhuman act. New UK immigrants should be able to bring pets to the UK with them.
