Overturn & condemn the ban on journalist Lauren Southern entering the UK
Lauren Southern, a freelance journalist from Canada, was detained, interrogated and prevented from entering the UK, using the ‘Terrorism Act’. Parliament must condemn the politically motivated use of terrorism laws to enforce ‘thought crimes’ and silence ideas; AND must overturn this ban.
