Spen, where have I suggested that only the ones I disagreed with should be outlawed.
I said clearly that with all the available means of communication that disruptive protests were unnecessary.

You really haven't got a clue have you what the consequences of your proposals are.

You have outlawed football, people going to work, kids playing, even people shopping g.

Now, you may stop and ask why people congregate to protest if your other methods are so effective


We haven't even dealt into the fact that the state can control access to social media and thus stop people using that, thus not really very effective protest is it

I am talking about demonstrations and mass protests held on our streets, while you are carping on about groups of people attending football matches , a a handful of people grumbling about late trains.
You really are acting like the village idiot. Take time out.

You are rather naive.

If you stop the right of assembly & protest, you stop it for everyone.

You seem to be under some form of misapprehension that it would be otherwise.
