What the petition asks
Emergency powers granted in times of emergency, particularly but not exclusively those related to freedom of movement, the right to assembly and the freedom to protest, must be instantly and without exception be withdrawn as soon as the crisis situation ends.
It is important that any and all emergency powers cease to remain effective as and when there ceases to be an emergency. This petition calls for the instant ceasing of all such powers as an absolute priority.
