Under the current criminalisation of protest, even the famous campaigners that we celebrate in the UK would be at risk of arrest simply for peacefully protesting.
The right to protest is a cornerstone of our democracy; we cannot allow its restriction to go unchallenged.

Dark blue placard on Westminster Bridge in London, with a cartoon of an older person wearing a green top and an "I Oppose Genocide" badge. It reads "Have you seen this nan? We've been responding to a rise in grandparents opposing genocide on our streets. Though they are suspiciously non-violent, some of their cardboard signs may have sharp edges. Please stay vigilant".

Don't quite understand why you're attacking me -- we're both entitled to our opinion. I think he will destroy the soul of the GP turning it into another cut-and-paste populist party. I don't really care whether you disagree. (But I do think you mean 'continually' not 'continuously'.)

It's hard to disagree with his policies because he's so busy promoting himself, policies barely get a mention.
He comes across as yet another shiny career politician who says whatever is expedient at the time and then changes his mind when it no longer suits (e.g. his comments on Corbyn, hypnosis).
