70 policiers blessés dans une manifestation contre l'extension d'une ... (TVA Nouvelles)

Quelque 70 policiers ont été blessés samedi dans des affrontements avec des milliers de manifestants s'opposant à l'extension d'une mine de charbon.

Environ 15 000 manifestants, selon la police - 35 000 selon les organisateurs -, dont l'activiste suédoise Greta Thunberg ont protesté contre l'extension d'une mine de lignite à ciel ouvert entraînant la destruction du hameau de Lützerath, dans le bassin rhénan, entre Düsseldorf et Cologne, soutenant des activistes qui occupaient le site et que la police a entrepris de déloger depuis mercredi. Le gouvernement juge nécessaire l'extension de la mine pour la sécurité énergétique de l'Allemagne qui doit compenser l'interruption des livraisons de gaz russe, un motif impérieux que contestent les opposants, au nom de la lutte contre les énergies fossiles. Quelque 70 policiers ont été blessés samedi dans des affrontements avec des milliers de manifestants s'opposant à l'extension d'une mine de charbon dans l'ouest de l'Allemagne, a indiqué dimanche la police allemande.

New plans to widen police powers for disruptive protests (BBC News)

Officers would be able to shut down protests before they cause serious disruption, under new plans.

"We cannot have protests conducted by a small minority disrupting the lives of the ordinary public. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said: "The right to protest is a fundamental principle of our democracy, but this is not absolute. Under this existing legislation, if the police want to restrict a protest, they generally have to show it may result in "serious public disorder, serious damage to property or serious disruption to the life of the community". "Allowing the police to shut down protests before any disruption has taken place simply on the off-chance that it might sets a dangerous precedent, not to mention making the job of officers policing protests much more complex," she said. A balance must be struck between the rights of individuals and the rights of the hard-working majority to go about their day-to-day business. No 10 said the changes would mean police would not have to wait for disruption to take place to shut down a protest.

UK police to get new powers to shut down protests before disruption ... (The Guardian)

Plans aimed at preventing tactics such as 'slow marching' are part of Rishi Sunak's public order crackdown.

We have not sought any new powers to curtail or constrain protest, but have asked for legal clarity about where the balance of rights should be struck.” Announcing the plans to crack down even further, Sunak said: “The right to protest is a fundamental principle of our democracy, but this is not absolute. It will also bring in new serious disruption prevention orders to place restrictions on individual activists and new stop and search powers for protest. She added they “should be seen for what they are: a desperate attempt to shut down any route for ordinary people to make their voices heard”. No 10 said it would mean that police “will not need to wait for disruption to take place and can shut protests down before chaos erupts”. Sunak said the proposals would be tabled through an amendment to the public order bill, which will be debated in the House of Lords this week.

"She was in a room, locked in a room. "I felt quite helpless that even my mum couldn't take me to the police station. The government says the deployment of officers in schools is an operational decision for police forces and a matter for individual schools. Another girl was later charged and convicted of assault. The Runnymede Trust is calling for the removal of all SSOs and for the government to invest more funding in school wellbeing services. The Department of Education also says a new investment of a further £10m in 2022/23 will help up to 8,000 schools and colleges promote and support the mental health and wellbeing of all pupils. "Many of the young people that I deal with already have a fear of the police because they feel that they are discriminated against and don't believe the police are fair," she says. "There needs to be dialogue in terms of when you use the police and how they come into schools." "It was weird because I was the only female in the van and they were [grown-ups]," she said. "[SSOs] being in and around schools is to help children and young persons to feel safe," she says. "It's an opportunity to work with children and young persons in a secure environment, to build up that trust and confidence, start those conversations, to build up that rapport," she said. Police officers have worked in schools for decades and were formally introduced in the Safer Schools Partnership programme in 2002.

UK government to make it easier for police to stop protests (Aljazeera.com)

UK Prime Minister says changes needed to stop disruption, but critics warn of risk to civil liberties.

“Providing such clarity will create a clearer line for the police to enforce when protests impact upon others who simply wish to go about their lawful business,” he said. Under the proposed changes, police in the UK will be able to close down protests before they even happen, and be allowed to consider the “total impact” of a series of protests rather than handling them individually. The amendments to the Public Order Bill, to be tabled on Monday, will broaden the legal definition of “serious disruption”, giving police greater flexibility and “absolute clarity” over when they can intervene in a protest.
