  2. 'UN Human Rights Chief urges #UK to reverse ‘deeply troubling’ Public Order Bill'

    'GENEVA (27 April 2023) - The #PublicOrderBill which has now been passed by Parliament in the United Kingdom, is deeply troubling legislation that is incompatible with the UK’s international #humanrights obligations regarding people’s rights to freedom of expression, peaceful assembly and association, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk warned on Thursday.'

  3. The Public Order Bill is yet another part of the government’s anti-democratic mission. Illiberal databases sit at the core of policing over protest, now with emboldened surveillance and search powers.

    It‘s a preemptive kettling of protest and thought.

  6. The Gov’t have confirmed they will ditch plans to ankle tag protesters thanks to our efforts✅

    But today they've rejected Lords amendments to the #PublicOrderBill which would protect our protest rights❌

    We can't accept more restrictions on our liberty. The Lords must act again

  7. 🗣️"I don't want suspicionless stop and searches. It sounds extraordinary that anyone in this House would support suspicionless stop and searches"

    @CharlesWalkerMP takes aim at EXTREME Government plans to restrict protest rights and limit freedoms. | #PublicOrderBill

  8. The British state will become "an engine of our suppression" under the #PublicOrderBill undermining centuries of British liberties, says @jon_trickett

  9. 🚨 The anti-protest #PublicOrderBill is back in the House of Commons this afternoon.

  10. Tomorrow MPs will vote on the anti-protest #PublicOrderBill.

    Plans in the Bill mean police could:

    👮‍♂️Stop & search innocent protesters
    🖥️Restrict campaigners’ internet access

    They must ensure that freedom of assembly is protected & back positive changes made in the Lords.

  11. Really important and timely! Takes 30 seconds to do. Do you know many democracies without the right to protest?
