Introduce accountability for organisations labeling people far-right extremists — 8 signatures. Status: rejected.
Introduce standards requiring organisations that classify identifiable people or organisations who are right wing or patriotic as far right, or far-right extremist or similar, to use transparent criteria, provide evidence for classifications, and operate a right-of-reply and corrections process.
Serious political labels can damage reputations and influence how individuals and organisations are treated by the media, employers, public bodies and the wider public. We are concerned that lawful patriotic or right wing opinions can sometimes be associated with extremism without sufficient distinction between controversial political opinions and genuine hatred, threats or violence.
