Petition for Iraqi Refugees


Posted by: "Andrew Silvera" ajsilvera@yahoo.co.uk ajsilvera

If you believe that we should act to help avert a humanitarian crisis then sign my online petition, (created with the support of Medact), lobbying the British government to give assistance to more than 2 million Iraqi refugees living in Syria and Jordan together with a further 2 million refugees displaced within Iraq. The petiton will take no more than 1 minute to sign, I promise.

The aim is to get at least 10,000 online signatures to let the government know that this is not an issue that can simply be side-stepped. I have also added a short TV news report onto the petiton site, which gives a good indication of the crisis facing Iraqi refugees residing in Syria. http://tinyurl.com/2uq9rr
