Stop new powers limiting repeat protests
Withdraw proposals to give police powers to restrict or ban “repeat protests". We think these measures undermine the right to free expression, peaceful assembly and democratic participation in the UK. Peaceful protest is a vital part of holding Government to account. Defend free speech.

Legislate to ban participants wearing face coverings at demonstrations
Government should introduce legislation to make it an offence to attend a demonstration or counter-demonstration wearing face coverings. All participants should be showing their faces, or, be arrested so that they can be identified.
Require protesters and police to be easily identifiable during protests
We want Parliament to require protesters to not cover their faces at protests and to ban police from covering badge numbers to ensure both protesters and police can be easily identifiable. We believe this ensures accountability for violence or excessive force, protecting peaceful, lawful protest.
Ensure Peaceful Protesting Outside Animal-Testing Facilities Is Not Criminalised
We call on the Government to repeal the recent amendment to the Public Order Act 2023 which, in our view, could effectively ban peaceful protests at animal-testing facilities.
Give the Home Secretary the same powers to ban static assemblies as marches
We are calling for a change to the law so that static assemblies can be banned by the Home Secretary where there is a serious risk of public disorder.
Make it a specific criminal offence to protest outside someone's home
Change the law to make it a specific criminal offence to protest outside someone’s home, so the police can act to disperse vigilante groups who gather outside someone’s home to harass individuals and families and allow them to arrest those who refuse to disperse.
