The globalisation of this attack on our fundamental rights is a key conservative aim. As capital operates everywhere, so should its ability to crush our objections. The many vicious anti-protest laws in the UK are an outcome of sustained lobbying by junktanks, the media and other governments.

The result in the UK is a country that now keeps hundreds of political prisoners, a country in which you can get six months in jail for marching slowly down the street. Protest here is acceptable as long as it’s useless. Let the people have their say, but only if we can’t hear them.
