Rejected petition Stop illegal wars by ratifying the Kampala Amendments

Ratify the Kampala Amendments and outlaw the crime of aggression to align our domestic legal framework with our international commitments to justice and the rule of law
.

More details

"In the UK, no citizen is above the law—yet a legal loophole remains for the most serious of all international crimes. Currently, a leader can plan an illegal war without facing the same domestic justice as those who commit war crimes on the battlefield.
By recognising the crime of aggression, we ensure that those in power are held to the same standards of accountability as any other citizen.
