Ban paid protesting

Ban paid protesting — 279 signatures. Status: closed.

Petition background

We want paid protesting to be criminalised. We think it is insincere, immoral, and is little more than an act of paying people to create public nuisances, antagonise current protests and falsely sway public opinion.

Additional details

We want companies paying protesters to be investigated, heavily fined and/or shut down. We also want the penalty for paid protesting to be heavy fines and/or a custodial sentences.
