Petition Action

Theresa May must publicly condemn the torture & killing of LGBT in Chechnya.

Petition Details

It has been reported that LGBT people are being held, tortured & killed in concentration camps in Chechnya. We believe the UK government should publicly condemn these actions showing support for LGBT people & letting the Chechnyan & Russian Governments know this will not be tolerated.
