Government petition to prevent the rollout of smart meters - Say NO to wireless smart meters - every vote counts

The Government are planning to install Smart Meters in every home and workplace in the UK to provide real-time monitoring of your gas and electricity. The meters will transmit your information (how and what you’re using) every 30 minutes via pulsed microwaves to a hub in the street which will pass the information on to a new central Data and Communications Company. Some areas have already started installation. The scheme raises concerns about privacy, security and health.
