We've been contacted by the No More Page 3 campaign to ask if we'd like to be added to their list of supporters, so we thought we'd put it to gransnetters to tell us what you think about the campaign.

The campaign started in the summer when Lucy Holmes found she couldn’t stop thinking about the fact that the largest female image in The Sun was of a young woman showing her breasts for men, even though Jessica Ennis had just won her gold Olympic medal.

We'd like to know your thoughts on the campaign, if you support it and your reasons behind it - and if you do support the campaign, if you've already signed the petition.

Thanks for bumping this, durhamjen. I've signed it now - let it slip past me when I was avoiding GN recently.

I've signed and now keep getting emails about other petitions - which I don't sign! So won't be doing it again

That's sad, goldengirl, because the petitions on www.change.org are written by ordinary people like you and me, who are worried or upset about some aspect of their lives.
Once you have signed up for one petition on the site, all you need do is click on the petitions that you agree with. I would sign any petition on there that will help save the NHS from private healthcare companies. In fact, I probably have signed them all.

126,000+ signatures in two weeks for the girls who were kidnapped in Nigeria.
That's worth signing, surely.

goldengirl, you can unsubscribe and that does take you off their list. Good luck with saving your NHS, durhamjen. It's quite a problem and things seem to be changing so fast.
