extinction rebellion a protest which power lies in central london for many many weeks and the police felt powerless to actually move people on and get the thought refers of london the roads open and running again the criticism of all of this particular proposed legislation is that it goes too far the other way that it wouldn't allow the police on a much lower threshold. from the risk of serious disorder approaches from public nuisance grounds to. finish times and impose more destructions on protesters the government doesn't appear minded to back down on this they have a majority in parliament theoretically they could push it through if they wanted to there will be amendments no doubt submitted by opposition parties who are very angry about it and the biggest criticism really is that it's a mammoth bill which lumps lots of different things in together for example proposes longer sentences for serious crimes known prison sentences for less serious crimes they're kind of things that many people here in the u.k.
