More details
The UK Ministry of Justice is consulting on a rule that could see publishers of defamatory material on the internet face court action just once instead of every time the offending item is repeated. This could see a long-overdue overhaul of a print law being misapplied to online publishing. We need to make sure that the law is changed.
The consultation is at http://www.justice.gov.uk/consultations/... and the email address to send your response to is defamationandtheinternet@justice.gsi.gov.uk
- not get married or civilly partnered until everyone can do either
