Somewhat ironically, the report recommending the government do more to tackle demonstrations arrived shortly after the High Court ruled the Home Office acted unlawfully when it granted new powers to the police to deal with protests last year.

Police should pay more attention to far-left extremists and new laws are needed to limit the right to protest, an independent government adviser has said. In a new report, crossbench peer and former Labour MP Lord Walney said the UK was at a 'crossroads in our democracy'.

And police officers, along with the Crown Prosecution Service, should maintain and regularly update an internal list of images and symbols associated with proscribed organisations, before publishing guidance about statements, chants, and symbols that constitute an offence.
