Don’t bow down to media billionaires: protect victims!
Bring back the Leveson Inquiry, and expose the cosy deals between police and the press. It’s time to put the interests of victims ahead of media barons!
Why is this important?
Madeleine McCann’s parents, the families of Hillsborough victims, and Caroline Flack’s mum all know what it is like to be targeted by an intrusive press. That’s why over 30 high-profile victims wrote to the Prime Minister demanding that the second phase of the Leveson Inquiry - the investigation launched after a media phone-hacking scandal wrecked lives - be reinstated to expose the secret deals between police and journalists.
Yet, while Sir Keir Starmer has found time to meet with media billionaire Lachlan Murdoch, he has failed to meet these victims.
Press billionaires are being given access to the highest levels of government while ordinary people whose lives were upended by the press are ignored. We cannot let the Government dodge this issue while media giants continue escaping scrutiny and ruining lives.
Please sign to demand the Prime Minister puts victims before moguls and restarts the inquiry now.
