Rejected petition Bring in the Army to bring an end to the London riots

More details

The riots going on around London are out of control! The police can't deal with it alone.

I propose we bring in the army to line the streets and show our full force so that we can bring an end to the riots.

Livelihoods are being destroyed, this needs to end now!
