Call on the GOV to allow the COE "Just Pray" advert to be shown in our Cinemas.

Rejected 12 signatures

What the petition asks

In one way the decision of the cinemas is just plain silly but the fact that they have insisted upon it makes it rather chilling in terms of limiting free speech. There is still time for the cinemas to change their mind and we would certainly welcome that

The Lord’s Prayer is prayed by billions of people across the globe every day and in this country has been part of everyday life for centuries. Prayer permeates every aspect of our culture from pop songs and requiems to daily assemblies and national commemorations. For millions of people in the United Kingdom, prayer is a constant part of their lives whether as part thanksgiving and praise, or as a companion through their darkest hours.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

This decision is a result of the policy of Digital Cinema Media, not a decision by the Government or Parliament.
