Stop the sale of British weapons to Saudi Arabia.
The Saudi Government is using British made weapons to kill innocent civilians in Yemen. We as a world leader should not be condoning this by continuing to sell weapons to a country that has shown they have no regard to civilian life.
Saudi Arabia and Iran have been using the Yemen civil war as a means to fit each other as a proxy war. Both countries have committed serious crimes in this region however Saudi Arabia have been sold British weapons which are being used to kill civilians. As a civilized democracy we cannot allow this to continue.
