Petition Action

Legalise concealed carry of sidearms for British soldiers not currently on tour.

Additional Information

British soldiers have the right to defend themselves, not just on tour abroad, but at home too, if our guys are becoming targets for terrorist organisations then it stands to reason that they should be better protected.
It is VILE that wearing clothing in support of (or indicating you are part of) the armed forces should single you out as a target for extremist action.
Action needs to be taken to ensure that soldiers should not be in danger in their own home country of all places.
