DECLINE A CALL FOR A BLASPHEMY LAW

Petition Details

Assure the people of this country that freedom of speech is not being eroded

Additional Information

Free speech has been an accepted quality of Great Britain for centuries and is a hard-fought right. We are allowed to criticise and examine beliefs and that is to be treasured. A law which protects any religion from criticism and examination is alien to our culture and is a step back.
