Britain will introduce a new criminal offence banning protests outside the homes of elected officials, judges and local councillors
Class warfare is alive and well in the UK, the wealthy continue to oppress through state violence while they outlaw peaceful protest. If you outlaw the peaceful way that just leaves the other thing.
That’s why they spent decades running the “war on terror” angle. To make the working class believe violence against oppressors is never justified.
Meanwhile the government has a monopoly on violence, and uses it whenever the political class, oligarchs, or corporations are threatened.
