We’re waiting for a new Petitions Committee
Petitions had to stop because of the recent general election. Once a new Petitions Committee is set up by the House of Commons, petitions will start again.

Closed petition Review legislation relating to public indecency and topless women
The government should review laws on public decency, and implement any reforms necessary to prevent women from being prosecuted just for being topless in a public place.
More details
In places where men are allowed to be topless, women should also be allowed topless. Our bodies are not 'distressing'. Women should be able to choose if they want to go topless or not, without the risk of prosecution.
