Human rights organisation Liberty has begun legal action against the home secretary, Suella Braverman, saying her move to empower police to curtail or restrict protests that caused ā€œmore than minorā€ disruption was unlawful, after Braverman forced draconian new police powers through parliament in a move described by the House of Lords as a ā€œconstitutional outrageā€.

Couldn't happen to a more deserving person.

Public Order Bill clauses blocked in the House of Lords. The Suspicionless Stop And Search clause has been overturned but other points in the Bill can be voted back in by the House of Commons. It's not over yet! thecanary.co/trending/2023/02/
