Closed petition Exempt peaceful, socially-distanced vigils from gathering limits during Covid-19
Closed on
Restrictions on the number of people who can meet in public should be waived for socially-distanced vigils.
Police intervention at vigils risks damaging public faith in the police force and wasting police manpower. Socially-distanced vigils should be allowed so people can mourn and show support for those affected by violence.
