👇 Thought provoking thread on the implications of #PCSCBill and the potential chilling effects....
🧵 This is a fascinating example of a @CityPolice officer threatening to invoke the fresh new powers of the #PCSCBill (as enacted the 'Police Crime Sentencing and Courts Act'). Lets take a look at what those powers are and why this act should be repealed! 1/x

/ Clearly this behaviour does not just meet the bar set by "Public Nusiance" in the #PCSCBill but blows it out of the water, yet it was not invoked. The wishy washy definition allows that this bill will be used exactly as we see at start of thread, to protect the state's 8/x

Today police gain new suspicion-less S&S powers. We raised concerns during #PCSCBill warning they could lead to inc. targeting of young Black men. #CaseyReview called for a 'fundamental reset' of S&S, so we join the demand for these new #SVRO powers to be halted. @libertyhq

bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0dszgq… I was on the Wayne Bavin show today (10:20) re: the obtuse #PublicOrderBill - #pcscbill even nastier successor. How about our government actually DO something about #ClimateEmergency instead arresting and jailing us protesters @XRebellionUK @JustStop_Oil

Make no mistake - this latest clamp down on fundamental freedoms threatens very right to peaceful protest - allowing police to stop protests before they happen on basis they *might* cause disruption is dangerous attempt to silence dissent #PublicOrderBill bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-6…

👮NEW: Police forces didn't use powers to restrict noisy protests in first five months of #PCSCbill being in force "The powers are are unworkable, unnecessary and the police do not need or want them", says @NickGlynn @hyjpang_ @libertyhq @netpol bigissue.com/news/activism/p…

As we near the end of 2022, @survive2thrive1 inspired us to share our achievements. In January an amendment to put RJ in #PCSCBill was debated in @UKHouseofLords. It was withdrawn but @MeacherMolly shared RJ's benefits & got widespread support from Peers.

I’ve done this search so many times for “protests”, “protestors”, “police”, “PCSCBill” etc. Either nothing at all or negative comments about protestors and glowing comments re police.
