Am I being unreasonable to post here to ask you to sign this petition??
My friend Rachael's two sons were abducted by their father in December last year - he was only supposed to be taking them to Russia for the school holidays. Meanwhile he didn't return and Rachael has obtained a court order from the High Court and also from the Russian courts to demand their return (under the Hague Convention).
Sadly Rachael's ex husband and ex mother in law have taken the boys into hiding so they don't have the face the law and return the boys. As I am sure you can all imagine the past year has been truly awful for Rachael, and she needs your help:
Please please please sign this petition - asking for political help to enforce the Hague Convention.

If you have the means it would also mean a lot if you could help Rachael by giving, even £1 helps - the UK legal fees were covered by legal aid, but she needs £35,000 to cover the Russian legal cost. But the main thing is to sign the petition.

If you do sign the petition please BUMP this post by writting "signed" or similar. Thanks.
