Closed Dissolve the ROYAL CHARTER ON SELF-REGULATION OF THE PRESS

Closed on

We ask the government of the United Kingdom to dissolve this charter which has been created without consultation of the people of this nation, this charter restricts freedom of the press and in doing so will remove a right of the people to gather information which could affect the livelihood of individuals and or groups, it also restricts freedom of speech and opinion which has always been a major part of the foundation of our democracy.
