Anti-monarchists receive ‘intimidatory’ Home Office letter on new protest laws
Home Office claims timing of new powers, taking effect days before king’s coronation, is coincidental
Ben Quinn, Rajeev Syal and Vikram Dodd
Official warning letters have been sent to anti-monarchists planning peaceful protests at King Charles III’s coronation saying that new criminal offences to prevent disruption have been rushed into law.
Using tactics described by lawyers as “intimidatory”, the Home Office’s Police Powers Unit wrote to the campaign group Republic saying new powers had been brought forward to prevent “disruption at major sporting and cultural events”.
The new law, given royal assent by Charles on Tuesday, means that from Wednesday:
Protesters who block roads, airports and railways could face 12 months behind bars.
Anyone locking on to others, objects or buildings could go to prison for six months and face an unlimited fine.
Police will be able to head off disruption by stopping and searching protesters if they suspect they are setting out to cause chaos.
Jun Pang, a policy and campaigns officer at Liberty, said: “Key measures in the bill will come into force just days before the coronation of King Charles – a significant event in our country’s history that is bound to inspire a wider national conversation and public protests. At the same time, the government are using a statutory instrument to bring draconian measures that the House of Lords threw out of the bill back from the dead, once again evading scrutiny and accountability.
“It’s worrying to see the police handed so many new powers to restrict protest, especially before a major national event. When the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Act came into force, the police repeatedly misused them – in part because they simply did not understand them. Similarly, when Queen Elizabeth died, we saw police acting in inappropriate and heavy-handed ways towards protesters that violated their rights.”
Shami Chakrabarti, the former shadow attorney general, said: “During the passage of this illiberal and headline-grabbing legislation, ministers admitted that the new offence of ‘locking on’ is so broad as to catch peaceful protesters who link arms in public.
“Suspicionless stop and search is notorious for racial disparity and it is staggering that more of these provisions have brought into force so soon after Louise Casey’s devastating report [on the Met police]. The home secretary can blast ‘ecowarriors’ but this legislation may be used against anti-poverty and Ukraine solidarity protesters too.”
A statement from the home secretary, Suella Braverman, said: “This legislation is the latest step the government has taken against protesters who use highly disruptive tactics to deliberately delay members of the public, often preventing them from getting to work and hospital, as well as missing loved ones’ funerals.
“The range of new offences and penalties match the seriousness of the threat guerrilla tactics pose to our infrastructure, taxpayers’ money and police time.”

so just to sum this up, peaceful protesting can now land you in prison for a year and you might face an unlimited fine which i believe is up to £5000, and police can now stop and search you if they believe youre "setting out to cause chaos"
its specifically being put in place right before charles' coronation, but these are now considered criminal offenses so theyre not exclusive to it.
you know, a country where you can be put in prison for a year for peaceful protesting really doesnt sound like a fucking democracy to me.

Two weeks after I put up my malevolent queen Liz Shrine (horrible postcard, stupid pen, and a knight pin all with her postcard in the middle) she carks it.
As soon as Charles became parasite in chief, I was given a framed photo of him and began my malevolent Shrine 2.0
Now the fucker has cancer.

I think instead of printing out new money with Charles on, we should print out all the new money with Freddie Mercury on. He is the Queen and he’s already dead so we won’t have to keep reprinting money. Also I think a lot less people dislike Freddie Mercury than Charles III

Oh the world will sing of an English King,
a thousand years from now.
And not because he passed some laws
or had a massive row.
While the good people of Britain lead
the great strikes that they're on.
We'll all have to toil away
whilst that good-for-nothin' Charles, is
as pointless as he is inept.
Whenever the history books are kept
They'll call him the last king of England
(A pox on the last king of England!)
[Instrumental]
He sits, oh, on the throne
as the fucking king.
A little shite who's rather like
a broke arm in a sling.
And we'll have a big rebellion
if we cannot have our way...
And we'll say fuck that ponce
and his brother's a nonce.
You see, better way to spend our May.
We all prefer the Eurovision final
If he dies first, it's sure to go viral.
A pox on the last king of England!
[To gay lover] Lay that country on me, babe! *wink*
[Instrumental lead by gay lover]
While we are torn to pieces
and we're robbed of our bread
that bloody crown makes us all frown
while children aren't being fed.
Ah! But while there is a merry one
in the British working class,
we'll find a way to make them pay
and we'll say 'good on' lass!'
A minute before he knows we're thee'er ['there', but do it broad Yorkshire]...
Some comrade kicks him up the rear.
That bastard and the last of, king of England
The snivellin', grovellin'
Measly, weasely
Blabberin', jabberin'
Gibberin', jabberin'
Blunderin', plunderin'
Wheelin', dealin'
Prince Charles, the last king of England
Yeah!

Smiling at this simple anti-monarchist design I saw on redbubble (x); ‘queen in bin’. Now time for Charles!

My fandom interests may change but my burning hatred for that cheating bastard Charles and his home-wrecking side bitch Camilla are eternal.
