THE head of England's leading republican movement was arrested at an anti-monarchy protest in London on Saturday morning.
THE head of England's leading republican movement is set to sue Met chief Sir Mark Rowley in what has been described as a first test case of new anti-protest legislation.
They were arrested on suspicion of going equipped to lock-on, but were released 16 hours later without charge. "We regret that those six people arrested were unable to join the wider group of protesters in Trafalgar Square and elsewhere on the procession route"The leader and his lawyer's Smith’s lawyers have said the case will be the first time that a court has had the chance to consider the “correct approach” when it comes to the Public Order Act – which gives police in England sweeping powers to crack down on peaceful protest.
The team further claim there was no need for an arrest as alternative means “of avoiding any purported risk of disruption” could have been actioned, such as seizing the banners in his possession.
