We, the undersigned, petition the government to put a stop to the planned cuts to the defence budget and to supply proper funding to allow all our forces to be equipped, according to the comittments made.


The ongoing cuts to an already struggling institution, continues to be a travesty that must be stopped. This is echoed in the increasing number of recorded verdicts of unlawful killing with regard to soliders deaths where they have died due to consistent failings to properly equip our troops. The welfare and morale of our troops faced with the effects of these cuts on a daily basis is at an all time low. This must be adressed with immediate effect in order to support our struggling forces.


On behalf of us, you request our armed forces to protect us and continue to serve queen and country, and therefore you must ensure that more funds are available.
