[Lancaster] [Fwd: [ORG-action] 24 HOURS TO DEMAND DEBATE!]

[andy baxter]

Just forwarding this email asking people to write to the Leader of the 
House of Commons asking her to give time for proper debate to the 
'Digital Economy Bill'. (Which contains clauses enabling a '3 strikes 
and you're out' policy on disconnecting people caught downloading 
copyrighted material from the internet).

Dear supporter,

We have 24 hours before Leader of the Commons, Harriet Harman says 
whether the Digital Economy Bill will get the full democratic scrutiny 
it deserves. 

In front of Parliament, Harman will have to say whether the scandalous 
levels of lobbying, insertion of web blocking clauses by the BPI and at 
least one Lord failing to declare an interest make any difference to 
Parliament: or whether the Bill can be rammed through without scrutiny 
during "wash up".

The Bill still has massive problems, and still contains measures that 
will infringe everyone's fundamental rights, such as our rights to 
freedom of expression and association. For these reasons alone, the Bill 
should be debated and scrutinised properly.

Thank you for helping: the campaign is working: nearly a thousand people 
have emailed Harriet Harman yesterday!
