Protesters “may be prosecuted” after the amp was confiscated in Westminster

According to police, anti-conservative protesters cannot be prosecuted after Amp was confiscated from him in Westminster.

Around 1 pm on Tuesday, a group of police officers raided Steve Bray on “Stop Brexit Man.”

Mr. Bray was allegedly prohibited from making noisy protests within designated areas outside the Capitol under police criminal judgments and court law that came into force earlier that day. ..

The Metropolitan Police Department said Mr. Bray, who vowed to return home with the amp, was reported about the crime-that is, he would be subject to prosecution.

In a post-incident speech, Mr. Bray told PA News Agency:

“But all the protests are about sound and vision. Without it, you’re not a protest, but they don’t want to dispute and don’t like me.

“The police came and said they would take them away if we continued, so I continued as usual and they caught them.

“I tried to stop them, and more and more policemen came and took the amp.

“I was said to have been summoned and had to go to court and are held as evidence. I chose a jury trial and hope to have 12 people left.”

Top hat demonstrators are common in areas where loud music is played in protests that may be consistent with the Prime Minister’s question.

Bray was known as Stop Brexit Man because he used a megaphone to shout “Stop Brexit.”

In social media footage, Bray, surrounded by a banner and the European Union flag, was seen wrestling with an officer as he tried to steal the amp and saying, “Release your hand.”

I heard a policeman answering, “I have been warned not to turn on the power.”

Mr. Bray then demanded that the officer return a banner saying he had taken it, before accusing him of breaking one of the amps.

His hat was seen falling in a brawl.

Increasingly angry, Mr. Bray could later be heard yelling at the police officer. This is not a law! Fascist mouthpiece. “

Dozens of police officers approached the scene on Tuesday afternoon, and Mr. Bray said some were chasing him wherever he went.

He added:

“Continue, nothing changes.”

Met’s statement states: “Men were using equipment in zones where the use of amplified equipment was prohibited.

“He has spoken to officers many times in connection with certain laws regarding the use of amplifiers. If he sticks, it will be confiscated.”

The statement added: “He was also reported about the crime. (This means he is subject to criminal prosecution).”

The law was enacted as part of police, crime, sentencing and court law, including measures to reduce noisy protests.

Police officials said equipment had been confiscated under Article 145 of the 2011 Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act, which was expanded to a wider area around the Capitol on Tuesday.

Grahame Morris, a Labor member of Easington, has accused Mr. Bray of “silence”.

He told the House of Commons: “I know many of us argued with Mr. Bray, but his voice is silent today.

Oliver Feely Sprague of Amnesty International UK said:

“Unfortunately, we are afraid that there will be a series of incidents in which people are blocked from legitimate protests because of both trivial and disciplinary matters.

“The new authoritarian police law is a charter to curb legitimate protests. It’s a dark day for the freedom of our country and we need to make sure we abolish it as soon as possible. I have.”
