Nigel Farage said Andy Burnham’s comments about potentially rejoining the EU had given him “the biggest boost in [his] career”. We look at why — even if it seems counter-intuitive — another Brexit debate could actually hurt Farage.

From Russia with love: It is quite autocratic and very dangerous. More than a thousand protesters were arrested in Russia last year alone under similarly vaguely defined unconstitutional laws. And many activists have been sentenced to prison terms for repeated violations. Arrests and fines for blocking sidewalks (only due to the fact that a lot of people came), trampled grass and a loaded subway for which everyone was already paying just because the authorities did not allow the rally to be held. And you didn’t even have to block anything and chain yourself somewhere.

Just looked up the “insulate Britain” protests.
While they were protesting for a good cause, blocking the roads isn’t going to help. All it’s going to do is make the people that you are actually hindering, and are not at all a part of the group you are protesting against, dislike you if not actively side with the other group.
Also, if a road closure due to a protest causes an ambulance to not get someone to the hospital in time and they die the protester(s) that caused the closure should be charged with involuntary manslaughter.

Agenda 21. It'll come into affect before people will realise. Look at Australia at the moment. You'd have thought they'd never have rules that have come into effect since BS "COVID". It'll come here before most will know nevermind see it coming. No it's not theory. It definitely a conspiracy. Thought democracy is where every 1 votes for or against policy etc. No difference between dictatorship and democracy.

Somebody mentioned that the courts would make any decisions by the judge? Another bill going through Parliament as well is the "Judicial review and courts bill" If passed it will allow the Government to intervene on any decision made in the courts by a judge! So the government could overturn any judgement made in court!, this government has total power over any citizen in this country! Now that is really frightening and "Totalitarian"

It is about time this govt gets tough with protesters. No the govt is not outrageous. Those protesters do not protest peacefully but instead they fight the police and destroyed statutes which is public property. Also the last protest insulating britain were ridiculous dusrupting normal peoples lives. Our govt has been really soft and it is time they should be able to arrest all these violent people who are not peaceful. The govt arresting and jailing those protesters in my opinion is right.

@Han-rw9ev
December 30, 2023 at 2:05 pm
I'm not that much into politics, but what's happening in our country right now has really frightening implications.
. Our government is well on the way to stripping us of the very rights and freedoms that those who came before us fought and died to protect. Until now it was considered unthinkable, but the Tories are going through with it. I mean what kind of law allows people to protest against the government ONLY when the government allows it?
Even the Bill that gives them the right to remove people's citizenship without any accountability is part of this. I mean is there anyone here who likes the idea of having their fates and those of their children in the current Home Secretary's hands?
Essentially, Johnson's government are pushing through two bills – so far – that are worded in such a way, that they can mean whatever the politicians and government officials want them to mean. One is a permanent threat that they can use to punish and control millions, and the other is intended to silence us and remove any potential 'dissidents'.
They might claim the new laws are for 'security', but they go far, far, beyond that.
There's also the sneaky way they amended the Police Bill at the last minute so that Parliament had little time to discuss it. That alone should tell us something about their true intentions.
Incidentally, I understand they can stop people from protesting against construction projects. This has me wondering if big business is behind at least some of these rules.
Johnson and Patel are just getting started.
If anyone thinks this is a good thing, think again. Dictators have no friends and we are walking into concentation camp territory.
Remember all those Brexit supporters who never considered the consequences, when they voted just to be rid of those they didn't like. And many of them are now paying a heavy price for it. This has the potential to be far worse.
On the surface, the politicians are selling these bills as something the public want. But they've added a lot of nasty extras that can and will be used against us.
