#Peers #HOL deliver several blows to #HMGov #AntiProtestingBill
"We are going to pass legislation here where protests that all of us would regard as reasonable, all of us would regard as acceptable, are going to be illegal.”
The draft legislation’s first defeat in the #Lords came on day when #ExtinctionRebellion protesters disrupted proceedings & #peers voted by a majority of 22 (243-221) in favour of a higher threshold before #police can intervene in #protests.
