Why this petition matters

Started by Emily Oram

Over the past weeks we've seen numerous protests regarding the callous deportation of people seeking legitimate refuge in the UK to Rwanda. 

Arsenal Football Club is a community minded club that does many good things and holds many good values, however it cannot fully espouse these values while continuing to support and promote Visit Rwanda. 

We're all aware of the way governments use sport to cover up unsavoury elements of their regimes, look at Qatar, Abu Dhabi and Saudi Arabia. As a fan of the club I don't believe that Arsenal should, in good conscious, be part of this. I want to support a team I can be proud of and this does not align with that. 

I'm therefore asking them to reconsider their relationship with this organisation and to remove them as sleeve sponsor as soon as possible.
