Petition Legislate to stop companies from refusing service based on lawful speech

Preserve the right to life and freedom of speech by passing legislation that prevents service providers (such as banks, tech platforms, social media e.t.c) from refusing access to an individual due to that individual's opinion or speech where this speech or opinion does not break UK law.

More details

In modern-day life, we rely on a relatively few powerful (and monopolistic) tech companies to provides essential services - e.g banking, communication, utilities, and payment services - that allow us to function together as a society.

If these companies work together to de-platform individuals based on their lawful opinions and beliefs, then individuals' will be unable to function within this society. This presents a clear and present threat to a person's right to life and freedom of speech.
