ITS IMPORTANT THAT WE DO NOT ALLOW THIS COALITION GOVERNMENT TO CARRY OUT ITS ANNOUNCED PLAN TO SPY ON ALL ITS CITIZENS

The Government Is Determined To Push Its Plan To Spy On All Of Us Through "As

Soon As Parliamentary Time Allows."

The Government has just announced a plan to spy on us all, to be pushed through "as soon as Parliamentary time allows." They want to see details of who we call, text and email, and which websites we visit - without any kind of warrant or reason. They want to force phone and Internet companies to install special devices to provide all this data on each and every one of us. Experts are lining up to condemn this idea as intrusive, expensive and ineffective. But we know that when the Labour Government announced similar plans a few years ago, a huge outcry was needed to make them back down.

So let us build a massive petition right away, to show David Cameron that British citizens will not put up with their Government spying on their every move. Please click here to add your name now: -

A final version of the plan is due to be announced in just one month's time. We need to move fast if we are to get this scrapped before then. A big petition right now could persuade David Cameron to rethink before he commits himself to deeply. His officials will report the rising number of signatures to him. And they will warn him that he can expect voters to challenge him every step of the way. A number of MP's from different political parties are already expressing unease. Liberal Democrat and Conservative MP's know that when Labour was in power, they publicly opposed these kinds of plans. public pressure could now push enough MP's to tell David Cameron that they will not vote for this large scale invasion of their voter's privacy.

Add your name to the petition today.

David Cameron claims that this will make us safer. But this is about spying on all of us, and not serious criminals. It's already perfectly possible for the Government to monitor people suspected of serious crimes, with proper permission and oversight. And serious criminals will inevitably find ways to hide their on line identities. Most importantly, this is not the kind of Britain that we want to live in. We should not respond to criminals by abandoning our principles and scrapping basic civil liberties. We should not treat every citizen like a potential criminal who needs to be monitored. Help stand up for our right to privacy when we browse the Internet or phone our friends.

Please sign the petition and spread the word now.
