The Digital Economy Act

As someone who works in IT, I couldn’t believe the way this Digital Economy Act was rushed through by the Labour government and with such little debate and without a care for what the people of this country think.

I know my Party did support many of the measures in this Act. For instance a single age rating system for video games was needed to help parents understand what sort of games are appropriate for their children. However, I am am particularly concerned about the use of disconnection and web blocking powers.

I think the Act needs some significant amendments and as such I would be more than happy to attend any meeting on this subject should I be elected on 6th May.
