Allow Tommy Robinson to receive PayPal payments again

What the petition asks
Paypal has shut down Tommy Robinson’s PayPal account, therefore he is no longer able to receive donations.
This is again clear evidence of the state and big companies trying to censor individuals with certain views, a clear breach of freedom of speech. No matter of political opinion or ideology, one should not be banned from using a public site. I have set up this petition to show PayPal the overwhelming public discontent with this decision, and for them to re open Tommy’s account!
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. PayPal is a private company and the UK Government and Parliament are not responsible for their decisions.
