🚨 BREAKING: The government has tabled their plan to restrict repeat protests.

Demonstrations could now banned based on the 'cumulative disruption' that previous protests have caused in the area - regardless of if they have been organised by the same people or not.

This is worse than we feared.

Local Greens were among the 250 people who joined this counter protest against the anti-asylum seeker demonstration at Ibis Hotel #Gloucester yesterday.

The counter protesters hugely outnumbered the demonstrators, and one hotel guest even came out to thank the counterprotest for the support💚

Wow! Wotton-under-Edge is the happiest place to live in Gloucestershire, according to a new survey.

The teaching of Black and Minority Ethnic history and racism is compulsory in Wales, yet it is not a mandatory part of the curriculum in the rest of the UK.

Why's that?

A bit of a wild day at the Gloucestershire Police & Crime Panel. I feel that this is local politics at the coalface.

Showing how extreme the government has got: @thetimes.com leading article opposes proscription of Palestine Action along lines of regret motion from @greenjennyjones.bsky.social in #HouseofLords
www.thetimes.com/comment/the-...
Palestine Action is malign, but terror status goes too far
The antics of such groups are frequently criminal, but branding them acts of terrorism was a misuse of the law

A good scheme which also tackled SS disproportionality too. Much of it resisted and now cynically unwound by @glos-police.bsky.social Who've introduced changes to remove agency from our black and minority ethnic communities, denying scrutiny; the very definition of institutional racism.
