That should have been done a long time ago

Conservatives we mustn't sell arms at any cost

You're having a damn laugh here! Listen, if these parties and indeed theresa_may herself want to stop any bilateral trade with KSA...let them. After the vile FakeNews campaign against MbS I wouldn't blame KSA for cutting every single UK contract NOW. tradegovuk what say you

and to enable Iran to destroy Middle East and spreading its influence everywhere?

TheGreenParty Whats the point they will just buy their arms from else where. Just an empty jesture which will cost us billions.

TheGreenParty Good idea.

HackneyAbbott Why would conservatives stop it? The Islamaphobia is in Tory's DNA and with selling weapon to them is just another achievement to get many Muslims killed as possible while they get more and more money for those killings. Isn't that what they would dreams of?

If you want proof that the planet is run by psychopaths, Yemen is it. Of course, the top brass always have a plausible reason for murdering and maiming innocents: inflicting unimaginable misery, death and destruction. Is your MP complicit in allowing this nightmare to continue?

It is very criminal for the UK and the US to be selling arms to the Saudis so they can slaughter innocent civilians in Yemen.

This will be like peeing in the wind and never happen

It's not Saudi Arabia .. it is The Kingdom Of Saudi Arabia .. The land of peace and love 🌱⚘💕 and actually we have a good relationship with UK & USA and most countries in the world, we are as a one family , those five opponents have no idea about it .

This is big money and this will just continue, next news story please (they talk numbers I didn't know existed till I new there's a global arms trade)
