Petition Action

Maintain ban on prisoners votes and refuse to pay compensation

Additional Information

Prisoners should not be able to vote as punishment serious enough to go to prison. They should not be able to influence the law when they have broken it themselves.

The action we want the government to take is to refuse to pay Prisoner compensation fees and to maintain the ban in the face of ECHR pressure.
