Rejected petition Scrap plans to monitor emails and internet browsing without warrant and try citizens without a Jury. Call for Theresa May to resign.

More details

We believe that all citizens have a right to be tried by a jury of their peers.

We believe that the a warrant should be required to obtain our private communications - and that we should not be treated as suspects by our government.

We call to scrap all plans to extend powers to hear evidence in secret, and obtain our private communications without a warrant. These are the tools of a totalitarian state, and an intolerable infringement upon the rights of free people.

We call for Theresa May to resign. No minister who believes these tools are necessary represents the will of the people.
