I'm not sure about this, but I'd have thought this is the kind of thing "devolved assemblies" would have the last word on, so the Westminster mob would only be dealing with what happens in English pubs.

Yes, I thought about coffee bars and all, but it gets a bit clumsy for a petition. "Pubs of England" has a ring to it - "Places of public refreshment" wouldn't sound the same. And sessions of this sort currently only seem to take place in pubs, in my experience.

I think keeping it just to pubs gets the foot in the door. But it could be changed to:

We believe that people in England should once again have the right to sing and play music freely, for example in pubs where the landlord agrees, and there should no longer be any laws that limit that right, over and above those that exist to prevent public nuisance and protect public safety.

We call upon Parliament to restore our rights in this matter.
