Denounce the Human Rights Crisis at the US/Mexico Border Patrol Facilities

Petition Details

The US Border Patrol Facilities have demonstrated neglect, cruelty and inhumane conditions for Central American migrants. If the UK claims to adhere to universal human rights, we must hold our allies accountable as well, and apply international pressure on the US to better handle the situation.
