Contact your MP using this form to urge them to support an amendment to the Financial Services and Markets Bill that will make it harder for companies like PayPal to deplatform customers for political reasons.
If you’re concerned about a social credit system emerging in the UK, please use the Free Speech Union’s campaigning tool to email your MP and tell them to support New Clause 15 of the Financial Services and Markets Bill.
PayPal removed the line about "misinformation" in its acceptable use policy but it's still there in its "restricted activities" section and it still threatens $2,500 fines for ill-defined "hate" and "intolerance".
Could PayPal’s drive against ‘misinformation’ be prompted by pressure from the EU? PayPal isn't a signatory of the EU’s Code of Practice on Disinformation, but the EU has been lobbying for it to comply nonetheless.
Why did PayPal double down on its political censorship policy last week, threatening to fine people $2,500 for wrongthink, only to then retreat again? And will this U-turn be enough to stop a mass exodus of its customers?
One of Hong Kong’s last remaining pro-democracy parties said Wednesday that PayPal had terminated its account, citing unspecified “excessive risks”.
In this week’s London Calling the talking points are PayPal’s recent difficulties, John Cleese’s new show on GB News, Michael Gove’s alleged sadism, Boris's resignation honours list and the threat of nuclear war.
