To: The UK Government
UK Citizens for the Rights and Dignity of all US Citizens
Please support the dignity and respect of all US citizens as enshrined in their constitution by making this the baseline for any relationship between the UK and the US under President Trump.
Why is this important?
In the current post-Brexit climate of uncertainty the UK Government will be seeking opportunities for beneficial trade deals with the US under Trump. This threatens to condone Trump's racist, Islamophobic and sexist policies in the eyes of the world. Diplomatic relations between the UK and US must be used to check Trump's maverick disregard for the equal rights and dignity of all US citizens and, at the same time, send a clear message in the UK (and throughout the world) that sexism and racism will not be tolerated by advanced democratic nations. Trump may have been voted in, but votes do not trump human rights.
