Mud from a Muddy Spring
In 1819, England faced economic stagnation and repression of public dissent, exemplified by the Seditious Meetings Act. The current Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill revives similar repressive measures, criminalizing public actions that cause 'serious annoyance' or 'inconvenience.' The bill also targets unauthorized encampments, affecting the Traveller population. The legislation is seen as a threat to the rights to freedom of expression and peaceful assembly, protected under the European Convention of Human Rights, and is viewed as part of a broader nationalist agenda.

Revealed: one in 100 police officers in England and Wales faced a criminal charge last year
An Observer investigation revealed that approximately one in 100 police officers in England and Wales faced criminal charges in 2022, with a 590% increase since 2012. The Police Federation, representing around 140,000 officers, has been criticized for defending members accused of serious crimes, including sexual offences. High-profile cases such as those of David Carrick and Wayne Couzens have highlighted issues within the police force. Metropolitan Police Chief Sir Mark Rowley and London Mayor Sadiq Khan have called for reforms to allow for the immediate dismissal of officers suspected of serious crimes. The Home Office is reviewing policing's dismissal processes, but Khan has urged for urgent changes. The Police Federation did not comment on the findings, and campaigners argue that the organization is a major obstacle to addressing police misconduct.
