We’re waiting for a new Petitions Committee
Petitions had to stop because of the recent general election. Once a new Petitions Committee is set up by the House of Commons, petitions will start again.

Closed petition Fund free public transport for all military veterans
The Government should fund free public transport for all Veterans (ex-service personnel) with free public transport within the UK. This should cover all trains, buses and trams.
More details
I believe that after leaving the military you are offered very little support, and it is very difficult to get a job.
In some cases, ex-military have pre-existing vulnerabilities post-discharge, homelessness occurs after Service, and they often suffer with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
Providing free public transport to Veterans will allow them commutable access to various towns/cities to interviews, and will also allow them to get their lives back on track, once released into the new big world.
