The deeply unpopular Tory Government has had a major authoritarian shift – yet more anti-protest laws go alongside criminalising climate campaigners taking direct action, draconian further restrictions on our right to strike, and the so-called Public Order Bill – a new assault, on top of years of attacks, on our basic civil liberties and democratic rights.

As part of the growing resistance to this, we are bringing together a wide range of voices to stand up for our right to resist and say no more. Be part of it.
