Closed petition Make slander a criminal offence
Closed on
I would like anyone who uses slander or gives false information on someone for something to in their favour or to make the other person look bad to be a crime with punishment.. people with mental health problems are being slandered due to lack of understanding of their condition
Some many people be it family members, ex partners ex friends slander people
Making it impossible for then to get anywhere in life and the wrong impression of them is seen
It's cruel and as a big affect on people's lifes it needs to stop.
