Cease UK-Iraq trade and investment if child marriage is permitted in Iraq

Petition Details

Iraq's parliament has amended its personal status law, granting religious courts authority over family matters. Critics warn this could permit child marriage, potentially allowing girls as young as nine to marry.

Additional Information

I believe the UK must not continue to trade with or invest in countries that fail to protect human rights. If child marriage is permitted in Iraq, cease UK-Iraq trade and investment immediately.
