Around 20 people have been arrested for attempting to disrupt the King’s coronation procession 🔴 The Home Office introduced new laws this week allowing police to arrest protesters as a preventative measure before they have cause disruption
The measure, which can only apply to adults over 18, also hands courts the power to prohibit certain individuals from being in a particular place, being with particular people, having particular objects in their possession and using the internet “to facilitate or encourage a person to commit a protest related offence”.
“The coronation is a chance for the United Kingdom to showcase our liberty and democracy, that’s what this security arrangement is doing,” Mr Tugendhat told BBC Radio 4’s“Empowering people to come together, freely, openly and demonstrating security can be a liberator, not like in authoritarian states, where it is a controller.”
However, freedom campaigners have insisted the arrests were unwarranted, since demonstrators from both Republic and Just Stop Oil were planning peaceful protests.
