Closed Pass legislation banning the name of terror suspects to be mentioned in media.

Closed on

The government and UK Parliament need to pass an act to ban the mentioning of the identity of terror suspects in order to avoid notoriety from growing for terror suspects which may incite more terror-acts to attract fame to a particular person or terrorist organisation.

This act needs to be passed in our Parliament to avoid criminals, extremists, and terrorists from gaining fame. The media are always writing articles about the lives of these terror suspects which isn't ethically right. These people have no right to be named, or mentioned within the media.
