Ban current & former politicians from taking out injunctions in certain cases

Petition Details

Current and former MPs & other elected politicians to be banned from applying for injunctions preventing media reporting on stories where information could be regarded as in the public interest, like links to criminal activity, foreign governments, influential billionaires or businesses.

Additional Information

I would like current and former MPs and other elected politicians who could influence voters, to be banned from applying for an injunction that could inhibit media stories regarding subjects for which the public should be made aware. This could be in relation to donations, bribery, any criminal activity, relationships with foreign governments or individuals related to foreign governments, billionaires, banks, global companies and media outlets.
