Rejected petition Increase Defence Budget

More details

In this modern world conflicts are arising all over the world and involving all aspects of our armed forces (Army, RAF and the Royal Navy) but all the government seems to be doing is cutting manpower and equipment putting our safety in danger and those fighting these conflicts. We should be increasing our defence budget not cutting it due to citizens of the nation wanting more necessary benefits and international aid.
