Allow diabetic people into the armed forces

Petition Details

Allow diabetic people into the armed forces even if it is just in the UK with no oversees deployment in warzones etc

Additional Information

As a diabetic in the royal air force air cadets I think we should let diabetics into the armed forces as we do exercises the same as the forces and have a similar structure to the forces. Diabetics can do everything other people can do and shouldn't be any different when it comes to selection and training getting into the forces and being in the forces
