London, UK. 29th May, 2021. Activists from civil rights groups take part in a Kill The Bill National Day of Action in protest against the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts (PCSC) Bill 2021.
The PCSC Bill would grant the police a range of new discretionary powers to shut down protests, including the ability to impose conditions on any protest deemed to be disruptive to the local community, wider stop and search powers and sentences of up to 10 years in prison for damaging memorials.
After assembling in Russell Square, the activists marched to Parliament Square, with pauses for speeches outside the British Museum, the Royal Courts of Justice, New Scotland Yard and the Houses of Parliament.
