Rejected petition Relaunch a modern Cold War prepared volunteer part-time UK home defence forces.

I would like to ask the British government to consider forming legislation to make ready a new updated home defence force plan for UK. LIke we had here in the not too distant past in time of the Cold War. In light of fact we are now declared to be in a new Cold War threat with Russia and with China.

More details

We used to in have until Options for Change in the early nineties, a UK prepared part time dedicated home defence force. Disbanded following fall of the Berlin Wall and Warsaw Pact forces disbanding at end of the last Cold War as the Soviet Union ceased being a security threat to the UK. Reservist volunteer TA SAS 21 Artists Rifles, 23 SAS signals and Home Service Force HSF personnel made up the units of the Home Defence Forces units throughout the UK. Including ex UK special forces members.
