Hundreds Plan To Attend 'Kill The Bill' Protest In Brighton

Hundreds of people are expected to march through Brighton today (Saturday) in opposition to a controversial police bill.

It will be the fourth recent demonstration against the government's new Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts bill - with protestors using 'Kill the Bill' to get their message across.

Demonstrators caused disruption to the city's taxi and bus services last time the protest took place on April 3.

The demonstration is due to happen at 1pm in The Level, and is part of a weekend of action across the country.

Among plans, the bill grants police additional powers to restrict protests by imposing start and finish times and setting noise limits.

Meanwhile, a protest's also expected on the University of Sussex campus this afternoon.

The group, called "Reclaim Sussex", lists among its concerns recent forceful police interventions during a party that broke COVID lockdown rules.
