Make cyber bullying a criminal offence

Closed 103 signatures

What the petition asks

Ensure cyber bullying attacks both real person and fake accounts are investigated by the police and persons dealt with accordingly. Cyber bullying makes our young people and adults twice as likely to self harm. We are seeing people taking their own life because of this. Police are not preventing.
