United Grand Lodge of England are concerned by reports this morning that the Metropolitan Police are considering forcing officers to declare membership of Freemasonry.
Our position on this matter has always been clear – our members must declare if it has any relevance to their work. But a blanket declaration requirement is a violation of officers’ fundamental human rights to privacy and Freedom of Association.
We are looking forward to our conversation with the Metropolitan Police on this matter.
We require all members to adhere to the laws of the land – without exception.
For three centuries, Freemasons have remained steadfast in our commitment to the enduring principles of integrity, friendship, respect and service. This will continue.
