Rejected petition Stop the Government fast-tracking new snooping charter

More details

The British government is set to fast track new legislation enabling them to snoop on UK citizens texts, emails and other forms of private messaging and also phone calls, without allowing MP's and ministers and the general public time to consider the implications.

This is a great invasion of privacy in the name of stopping terrorism, which it most certainly is not for.

Please sign and stop this heinous law from being passed.
