How can a March for Peace be Incompatible with a Memorial for those Killed in Wars.

It's an interesting one, because the way the public order act is drafted. Approval is with the Home Secretary, but the request has to come from the Police chief.

There is nothing illegal about a peace march to support the poor people of Gaza. The proposed route, certainly meets the criteria for restriction, but that is the Met chief's call not the Home Secretary.

Public Order Act 1986

An Act to abolish the common law offences of riot, rout, unlawful assembly and affray and certain statutory offences relating to public order; to create new offences relating to public order; to control public processions and assemblies; to control the stirring up of racial hatred; to provide...

Isn't it a case they haven't the numbers to police an illegal march that gets out of control and therefore have handed over the responsibility to the organizers of the march to share some responsibility.
The government can sit back and spin the outcome to put themselves in a favourable light.
 
Honestly, I think the PM and HS have undermined their authority in the way they briefed the press.

They either have or have not got confidence in the met chief. If it kicks off, he's probably out of a job.

It would have been better to demand assurances from the met and mayor and ask them to consider all necessary steps to ensure safety and public order. Thats enough of a hint.

I was under the impression Rishi had said he wanted the march banned and then someone had a word in his shelllike to say you can't ban 'peaceful' marches.
 
They absolutely can ban peaceful protest marches. But its two step and the request has to come from plod. First they impose restrictions and if they feel the restrictions wont be complied with, they can request approval to ban it.

s12 gives the power to impose restrictions simply due to noise and disruption... S13 gives the power to ban in the event they don't feel the restrictions will be complied with. It's a sad situation when the PM and HS, get ignored by plod, but its his call.

The chief plod is screwed either way.
 
Motorbiking made numerous accusations against me, yesterday, and I asked him to present any evidence to support his dishonest and false accusations.
One would have thought that given his supposed background, presenting evidence to support offensive and derogatory accusations would be second nature.
But apparently not.
Either there is no evidence, which I already knew, which is why I was so content for him to present any supposed evidence.
Or even if there was, and there isn't, he's unable to find any. But he makes his false dishonest and abusive accusations anyway, knowing full well that he has no evidence.
He, and johnny2007, make a pretty (dishonest, abusive) pair.

Dude rides a fireblade, he's hardy going to be delicate. You are the one making incorrect accusations without evidence as usual. As well as calling members here liars because they disagree with your misguided opinions, you are now happy to defame some poor chap innocently raising money for charity, with no evidence to back up your slur. Delightful.

he's made a complaint, it's being investigated. You have no evidence that he's made it up, so you just assume he's fibbing because of your prejudice. Is it because he's an old white man?

Happy to educate you again on trans rights, your illegal support for a proscribed terrorist organisation, your incitement of hatred towards jews or the role of the RNLI in ferrying asylum seekers.

But I suspect you wont listen as usual.

You're off on a rant, a thoughtless one at that.
You're certainlyl destroying your previous immitation of a calm. unbiased, expert on all things.
I'll deal with your points one by one:


Does that make him immune to telling lies? :rolleyes:


Show me these accusations that I've made. :rolleyes:



I accuse someone of being a liar if they tell lies, like making baselss accusations.
Like accusing me of calling members on here liars for disagreeing with me.
Please find the evidence and present it that I have called anyone a liar for holding a difference of opinion.
The misguided bit is just your opinion.
Perhaps you could take up Johnny2007's case for him and find proof of my racism.
He can't. :rolleyes:



How have I defamed him?
Please present the actual evidence. not your opinion of what I've said.



I agree, he's apprently made a complaint, which is being investigated, we hope.
I haven't assumed anything. I'm keeping an open mind, and you're obviously not.
It shouldn't be too difficult given the number of CCTV cameras normally on stations, including the multiplicity of people taking phone videos.
Please present the evidence to support your aaccusation.
His age and ethnicity, his riding a motorbike, his ex-service, etc has no bearing. :rolleyes:



By making ignorant and incorrect references to legal judgements and Acts. :rolleyes:


Present the evidence to support your accusation.


Present the evidence to support your accusation.


Present the evidence to support your accusation.


I'm waiting and listening for your presentation of the proof to support your accusations.

Edit. I'm not available for the rest of the day, but please be assured I'll consider your response in due course.

There you go.. calling me dishonest again, just because I can't be bothered to pander to your ego. The number of thanks and likes that my post got, calling out your boll@x should be enough for you to give your head a shake.

or are all these members dishonest too.

So you made the false accusations without having the proof? :rolleyes:
That's sufficient proof of your dishonest and abusive nature.

I see the thanks and likes you got from the likes of ReganandCarter, gant, Johnny2007, fillyboy, et al, for your dishonest and abusive accusations, boosted your ego :p

Perhaps the obligation is on you to prove they are false?

Don't be ridiculous, I do not need to prove my innocence.
You made the accusation, you need to present the evidence.

It proves that you made the accusations without having any proof.
If you had it, you'd have it to hand.
Like johnny2007, gant, fillyboy, et al, you use dishonest false accusations as a form of abuse.
It certainly shows your poor lack of intelligent debate.

Do you always go off half-cocked? :rolleyes:
A bit of a ridiculous attitude for someone who was supposed to be in the legal profession. :rolleyes:

Rumours abound of a reshuffle - something Rishi! meant to get round to but hasn't yet had the time...better hurry, six weeks til xmas, then the New Year with an election upcoming. Maybe the HS really is trying to get herself sacked to avoid the sh!tshow to come?
 
I think the organisers of the protest could have picked a better date, it gives their detractors the opportunity to conflate the protests with anti Britishness.
With such a large gathering , those in charge would need to be wary of the possibility of infiltration by agent provocateurs intent on causing disorder for propaganda purposes.
