This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Rejected petition Do not pass the Investigatory Powers Bill. It is flawed and intrusive.
1. This new bill places too much power in the hands of too many minor functionaries.
2. I see no reason why HMRC needs this data to "protect" me.
3. It is disturbing that this violation of privacy could be instigated by a politician and would not solely be in the hands of the legal system.
