    What does UK law say about protesting?

    • Right to protest is a fundamental democratic freedom


    • UK law allows individuals and groups to protest in
    public to share their point of view
    • If protests involve a march or procession the police
    have to be informed about it
    • The police can alter the route of a march or ban it if
    they feel: the march may intimidate people or might
    lead to violence
    BUT! A protest which turns violent
    is called a riot and illegal.
    Why do you think this protest turned
    into a riot?
    What about terrorism?

    Terrorism = violent acts which usually hurt innocent civilians with the aim to achieve a
    political goal

    Terrorists claim that they are fighting…


    • …against social and political injustice (for example if a group of people are denied
    their human rights)
    • …against poverty
    • …to assert their religious beliefs, especially if they feel they are denied to have them

    Others say that through their actions terrorists make society aware of their cause, so
    people become scared of them and push authorities into giving way into their
    demands.
