This will in all likelihood go to the courts, where the Council will need to show any PSPO issued complies with guidance on the circumstances in which they should be used. They will need to produce evidence, not merely a glorified opinion poll. They will have to address how any PSPO is compatible with the Human Rights Act, which allows for peaceful assembly and protest and expression of opinion. The only people guaranteed to win from this are the lawyers, many of whom will be being paid for by Ealing council taxpayers. |
