英国的Freemasons质疑Met Police披露会员资格的任务, Freemasons in UK challenge Met Police’s mandate to disclose membership, calling it discriminatory and a human rights breach.

英格兰、威尔士、马恩岛和海峡群岛的 " 共济会 " 正在准备对大都会警察采取法律行动,因为其计划要求官员宣布为 " 共济会 " 成员。 Freemasons in England, Wales, the Isle of Man, and the Channel Islands are preparing legal action against the Metropolitan Police over its plan to require officers to declare Freemason membership. 英国联合大旅馆及其附属团体认为,该政策基于协商不足,具有歧视性,并有侵犯人权和侵犯国内生产总值保护的风险。 The United Grand Lodge of England and affiliated groups argue the policy is discriminatory, based on inadequate consultation, and risks breaching human rights and GDPR protections. 他们称这一要求不相称,指出在32 135名军官中,只有440名是成员,并声称尽管Freemasonry长期以来一直奉行道德标准,但这一要求破坏了公众的信任。 They call the requirement disproportionate, noting only 440 of 32,135 officers are members, and claim it undermines public trust despite Freemasonry’s long-standing ethical standards. 该政策源于丹尼尔·摩根独立小组的建议,其中提到对腐败和公众看法的关切。 The policy stems from recommendations by the Daniel Morgan Independent Panel, which cited concerns about corruption and public perception. Met表示此举支持透明性, 引用调查结果显示三分之二的员工认为这种关系会影响公正性。 The Met says the move supports transparency, citing survey results showing two-thirds of staff believe such affiliations affect impartiality. 共济会在采取行动之前发出一封信,敦促大都会暂停这项政策,以避免司法审查。 The Freemasons have issued a letter before action, urging the Met to suspend the policy to avoid a judicial review.
