Petition Action

Overturn the Order of 1290 expelling Jewish people from England.

Petition Details

Edward I's order commanding the expulsion of Jewish people from England is still law in this country. It is a shameful oversight that it has never been revoked - it needs overturning immediately

Additional Information

As a country which professes to allow all faiths and races to live here peacably, the fact that this law is still part of the English legal system is a disgrace which needs changing. We cannot see into the future - this could easily be re-enacted by an extremist government if it remains on the statute book.
