//...an authoritarian law which effectively gives the uk govt to take away the sacred right to protest if they feel like it// Alas that "sacred right" (which is actually certainly not sacred and very often, in the way the protests are organised, not a right) often involves curtailing the freedoms of many more people trying to go about their lawful business....
TTT you do really make me laugh, its not so long ago when you accused me of only giving a best answer to who ever agreed with my post. :0))) your a star!!!!
The Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill is an authoritarian law which effectively gives the uk govt to take away the sacred right to protest if they feel like it... it has been drafted by the nastiest most reactionary sections of the conservative party - the only ones left after the Johnson purges - and it is a threat to civil liberties in the UK... I do not endorse violence but I completely support their cause and a few unpleasant agitators are not enough to change my mind. It is a nasty law written by terrible people.
When they say"kill the bill" they are not referring to the police, the old Bill, but the bill making it's way through Parliament.
I support the police, but I also believe that we have the right to protest and make our opinions heard. What I don't support is the use of violence.

Alas that "sacred right" (which is actually certainly not sacred and very often, in the way the protests are organised, not a right) often involves curtailing the freedoms of many more people trying to go about their lawful business. Protests are often aimed at causing the maximum inconvenience possible to as many people who are not remotely concerned with the cause, as it can. The government is simply trying to address that injustice - and not before time.
TTT, I think that Johnson is populist, not authoritarian. Authoritarianism is against his expressed ideology, but it is not against his inner instincts. He really wants to be in charge (authoritarian) but wants to be loved (populism). He is a weak chancer (i.e. gambler) - if he wins his bet he will be a hero, if he loses, then it won't bother him because he's got it made financially and emotionally.

Exactly, we have at least 1 or two protests a month., every month in Bristol causing a massive inconvenience to the people working in the centre and at the hospitals in the centre, one person couldn't get to see his dieing father due to an XR protest, all the traffic and busses get diverted, the patients in my hospital, some of them cancer patients couldn't get in for their appointments, its time to stop this happening.
judge: "Protests are often aimed at causing the maximum inconvenience possible to as many people who are not remotely concerned with the cause, as it can.

Like those ER retards last year for example.
