These arrests are shocking to see โ no-one should be denied the right to voice an opinion. Freedom of expression is meant to be a cornerstone of British tradition & values. Yet, as many of us warned would happen, the #PolicingBill is now posing a direct threat to democracy

You all were warned about the direction Britain was going.
We warned you for nearly 2 years about the #PolicingBill
But most of you didnโt care because Travellers were being targeted.
Now that protesters are being arrested, have you started to care?

RT @libertyhq: With the #PolicingBill set to become law, it's vital the people most at risk are empowered to protect their rights and those of their families, friends and communities.

Buried under stories of sleaze, misogyny and govt incompetence during the pandemic - the #policingbill was passed.
So we now live in a country where it is illegal to protest. Convenient for a government that is giving us more and more reason to rise up.

RT @libertyhq: After a year of resistance, the Government managed to push through the remaining anti-protest measures in its #PolicingBill late last night.

RT @WarOnWant: Last night was a brutal blow to democracy as the government managed to push through the remaining anti-protest measures in the #PolicingBill.
This draconian Bill will now become law in the coming days. 1/5

RT @friends_earth: But the #PolicingBill is still the most significant restriction of civil liberties in a generation.
The governmentโs assault on the nomadic way of life of already persecuted Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities has no place in any country that claims to respect human rights.
