Watch: ‘Tory fascists’ trends as Steve Bray told he isn’t allowed to protest by police

"There it is, they actually tell Steve Bray that his human rights have been stopped by a new law."

Love him or hate him, Steve Bray is relentless.

The anti-Brexit campaigner is rarely away from Parliament Square.

But not for much longer by the looks of it.

He was approached by two police officers today and told that protests are not allowed in that area anymore and that new legislation has overwritten an ancient act that allows the right to demonstrate near Parliament.

So apparently I’ve been summonsed and the case will go to court. Obviously I’m going to elect Trial by Jury but I may need some legal help. pic.twitter.com/FN492x5i0c

On the day that “noisy” protest becomes unlawful under the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill, at least 20 police officers have just surrounded anti-Brexit protestor Steve Bray outside the Houses of Parliament and seized his loud speaker. @LBC pic.twitter.com/ljwwHOO8me

The new laws are to tackle the likes of Insulate Britain and who’ve caused huge disruption by blocking roads. But it defines excessive noise as “having a significant impact on people or causing serious disruption to the activities of organisations in the vicinity”. @LBC

He said he would continue and the police have stepped up their action against him.

They then decided to threaten to seize the amps and slap him with a fixed penalty notice.

He ignored all that and shouted at Sajid Javid.

it comes as ministers have been accused by MPs and peers of creating a “hostile environment” for peaceful protest following the Government’s latest attempt to crack down on disruptive demonstrations.

The Joint Committee on Human Rights said new policing powers in the draft Public Order Bill would have a “chilling effect” on people in England and Wales seeking to exercise their legitimate democratic rights.

It called for key measures in the legislation to be watered down or scrapped altogether, warning they threaten fundamental freedoms guaranteed in the European Convention on Human Rights.

The bill was drawn up in response to what ministers say is the unacceptable disruption caused by groups such as Extinction Rebellion and Insulate Britain.

Reactions

A lot of people didn’t like the harassment of Bray, but a lot of others also saw that this is symptomatic of a wider issue, which could begin to impact on society as a whole.

There it is, they actually tell Steve Bray that his human rights have been stopped by a new law. #ToryFascists https://t.co/h9xd9JopCT

We should all be deeply concerned about this.

You may or may not agree with Steve Bray protests. But one day there will be something you need to protest. That right has been taken away, your voice will not be heard. #ToryFascists #ToryFascistDictatorship#RightToProtest https://t.co/4Z32sek3Od

Listen till the end where the police tell @snb19692 that 'his human rights have been superceded'.
Today they'll come for Steve Bray for being 'loud and annoying', tomorrow it might be you. https://t.co/DaIpr9CRn4
