Petition Action

Taking the necessary and appropriate action to quell the national riots immediately.

Additional Information

We, the undersigned, hereby request that for the safety and livlihoods of the citizens of this country, that immediate and strong action is taken by the Police and / or Military services to stamp out this riotous and thug-ish behaviour as quickly as possible.

The undersigned believe that we should be using water-cannon's and tear gas with immediate effect for any further breaches of lawlessness, looting, arson or further riot violence, and if this is determined not to be strong enough, to escalate the show of force to include military intervention with the authorised use of non-lethal rubber bullets with immediate effect, to persuade these rioters to go home and behave like the majority of law-abikding citizen's in the UK.

The undersigned believe that this should happen immediately, and that the longer it takes to stamp it out, the harder it will become to take back control of this escalating situation.
