Rejected petition Remove further restrictions on protest from the new crime bill.

Remove any further restrictions on people's right to protest from the crime bill including:
-Time limits on protests
-Maximum noise level of protests

More details

The right to protest is one of our fundamental rights in a free country.

Protest allows people to voice their concerns in a non-violent way.

Disruption has and will continue to be a side effect of protest, one that is a reasonable compromise for a free and civil debate.

Any attempts to further crack down on people's rights to do so is a worrying attack on our freedoms, liberties and democracy.
