Dear neighbours,


I just signed the petition "Embarrassing the government should not be a crime" and wanted to ask if you could add your name too.


This campaign means a lot to me and the more support we can get behind it, the better chance we have of succeeding. You can read more and sign the petition here:

Thank you!




P.S. Can you also take a moment to share the petition with others? It's really easy ? all you need to do is forward this email or share this link on Facebook or Twitter: https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/embarrassing-the-government-should-not-be-a-crime?share=aaa86039-9233-4b41-b090-a0c886763ccb&source=email-share-button&utm_medium=socialshare&utm_source=email

Is this for real?


All these on-line petitions are a joke.

"Journalists should be allowed to report on issues which are in the public interest."

How is embarrassing anyone in the public's best interest?

Should be a petition to stop journists over sensationalising stories and get them to actually report real stories

Just because some journalists (or more likely sub editors) do click bait there is no reason to stop the reporting of stories that maybe mildly embarrassing because the government wants to win an election.


Although I guess the Ed Milliband eating a sandwich hack deserved 10 years in jail for that - Ed would have been kind and visited him once a year in the alternative universe where Ed won.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
