Ensure that terrorists do not get state pensions.
Jeremy Corbyn is pushing for a law change that could hand pensions to terrorists. He has put his name to an amendment to the Northern Ireland (Executive Formation) bill. It demands a pension for all “seriously injured victims of Troubles-related incidents”. It may allow terrorists to claim handouts
Corbyn’s amendment is also backed by fellow Labour MPs Karin Smyth, Tony Lloyd and Nick Brown.

You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
The Northern Ireland (Executive Formation etc) Act 2019 has placed a legal duty on the UK Government to introduce a victims payments scheme by the end of May 2020.
The Northern Ireland Office has said that it will consult widely on the details of a scheme before it is implemented. It has also said that the intention of the scheme would be to support people seriously injured in Troubles-related incidents through no fault of their own, so we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
