Require public safeguards before compulsory mobilisation for war with Russia

Require public safeguards before compulsory mobilisation for war with Russia — 9 signatures. Status: rejected.

Petition background

Legislate to prevent compulsory mass mobilisation for war with Russia unless ministers publish the case for military action, eligibility and exemption rules, and a homeland security plan, and obtain approval from the House of Commons.

Additional details

Before people are compelled to serve, the public deserves the evidence, legal basis, objectives and alternatives to war. Rules must cover age, health, caring responsibilities, essential workers and appeals. Ministers must explain how families, essential services and infrastructure will be protected against cyberattacks, sabotage and covert agents. Operational secrets should face confidential parliamentary scrutiny, with threats assessed on evidence, not religion or ancestry.
