Help British citizens stranded in Australia/New Zealand to get home.

Petition Details

Help to secure flights to get British citizens back home.

“We must act like any wartime government,” - Boris Johnson.
If this is really a war against "an invisible enemy", Should this not be more reason to help get your citizens out from this warzone?

Additional Information

with the Covid-19 virus, many UK citizens have been stranded with no jobs, no income and no support, which is leading to panic.

Flights have either been cancelled or the prices are extortionate, which many people cant afford. Also with cancellations, refunds will not be processed for weeks, Leaving citizens who have booked flights, now with no funds to book new ones or support themselves. There has also been talks that Scott Morrison will cancel all international flights from Australia.
