Updated 3 August 2023

In 2019, when I was 15, I attended a protest against the Defence and Security Equipment International arms fair (DSEI) alongside hundreds of peace activists, many of whom were Quakers.

These include longer sentences, expanding stop-and-search powers, restricting protest, and criminalising trespass. A lot of these will disproportionately affect people from marginalised communities.
