Petition Ban British Citizens from Joining Any Foreign Military

Ban British citizens from joining any foreign military and criminalise such enlistment. The UK lacks control over overseas military conduct. We believe this measure would help safeguard national interests, ensure accountability, and uphold ethical standards.

More details

We advocate for citizens engaging in military service exclusively for the UK. Recent reports highlight instances of British citizens serving in the IDF. We believe this emphasises the need for careful consideration to avoid any complicity in what many see as human rights issues. We consider it essential for our government to address concerns about radicalisation, ensuring the safeguarding of citizens while upholding ethical standards.
