im all for giving a heads up to the police that a protest is been planned but having to ask if its ok to have a protest goes against democracy
Some of the people who rocked up at the recent protests in London, had no intention of protesting peacefully. And it had nothing to do with policy or laws made by the government they just fancied a bit of rioting and property destruction, for the sake of it. It had nothing to do with their political leanings,they were just thugs and hooligans hell bent on causing as much damage as possible, whilst hiding behind a cause they have no empathy with.
