Baroness Miller leads attack on Parliament protest laws

4.20.33pm GMT Fri 26th Jan 2007

Liberal Democrat Peer, Baroness Sue Miller will lead a group of Liberal Democrat peers protesting outside Parliament - against laws curbing their right to do so. They will hold a demonstration outside, before entering the building to debate a bill to repeal parts of the Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005.

Baroness Miller said her group had got permission, but said that it was "ridiculous" they had to do so she said "In a democracy, citizens should not have to apply for police permission to peacefully protest outside Parliament,"

Baroness Miller has laid a Bill - the Public Demonstrations (Repeals) Bill before the House of Lords which was debated earlier today.
