    Wide ranging, some of it worked, but being an enabling Act it allowed lesser legislation to improve on it.

    “Work” has changed a lot since 1974, but the Act still works for the greater good
    So you're a collectivist then?

    You shouldn't really be in disagreement with the socialists on here then.

    Hitler, Lenin, Stalin, Pol Pot and Mao were collectivists.

    You make much of my omission of the word serious. How will 'serious' unease/annoyance as opposed to just 'unease' or 'annoyance' be defined and who will be defining it? Are you happy with this wording?

    I thought you disliked straw manning? I didn't say I approved of serious disruption to people going about their activities, and I completely agree that there is a balance to be struck. But are you not concerned that these sections of the bill are open to abuse by an open secretary that wishes to further clamp down on active but legitimate protest? (I'm not talking about riots or criminal acts)
    As this thread has gone off topic I've set up a thread on the policing bill on the 'politics board' for any further replies on this topic. It's an interesting topic and am happy to discuss the ins and outs but agree with earlier poster that it's way off topic for this thread, and should be over there anyway.

    Can I protest?

    No need for this or any other discussion to go to that board. Either reply or simply stop answering. It will disappear out of sight if people do.

    Stop being an ar$e.

    But it’s easier to make it disappear from sight by moving it.

    Move it please

    ...ah yes, remember who featured in the 'clunk click' ads? Back in the days when JS was seen as a good old charitable soul....apart from unsuspecting visitors to a bungalow or camper van in Glencoe.....

    Shows I must be a youngster, my first driving lesson was the day after the seat belt law went into force so I've never driven without. Feb/Mar 1983 if I remember right?

    Much as monty and yourself seem to state the opposite, there was quite a democratic exercise on here and the vast majority wanted political ****e on the other board. I'm quite interested in the new police bill and would be interested in hearing opposing views but we've hijacked this thread. Makes sense to simply move it and carry on there, although some seem strangely reluctant to discuss non footy topics without an audience!

    Yep, believe it or not there were folks then claiming the wearing of seat belts was dangerous.

    Just like the anti-jab lobby we are seeing now

    Totally thick

    I remember as kids, no seat belts and when we went around corners skating about in the back of a Vauxhall Viva on vinyl seats like Torvill and Dean. Not sure if that was worse or when Mum and Dad both lit up their Embassy Regal and the only respite we had was to stick our nose out of the small rear quarter light windows.
