A "Kill the Bill" protest is expected to take place tomorrow afternoon.

The demonstration against the Government’s proposed Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill is expected to meet at Regent Circus from 2pm.

The draft legislation would give police in England and Wales more powers to impose conditions on non-violent protests – including those deemed too noisy or a nuisance, with those convicted liable to fines or jail terms.

A protest was held earlier this month and attended by around 80 people. You can read more about that event here.

A spokesman for Wiltshire Police said the force was aware of Saturday's protest.

He said: “We will have policing plans in place to manage the protest if it goes ahead and our police liaison officers will engage with those in attendance to remind them of their responsibilities.

“We respect the right to protest but we ask that this is done responsibility and remains peaceful.”

The force spokesman added: “It is important to remember that the public health pandemic has not ended even though the restrictions have been relaxed, so large numbers of people congregating will continue to increase the risk of spreading the Covid-19 virus.”
