NPCC guidance appears to use definition of unlawful protest activity that could include boycotting shops
Guidance on policing protests circulated to all forces in England and Wales may breach human rights obligations, according to campaigners.
The guidance, produced by the National Police Chiefs’ Council (the NPCC) and the College of Policing (COP), also appears to use a definition of unlawful protest activity that could include boycotting a shop or silently taking a knee.
