It has been 'subversive', 'agitator', then 'extremist'. Now the police are labelling campaigners demanding genuine alternatives to the mess Britain is in right now as "aggravated activists". On 15 February 2023, we are reclaiming that label as our own on #AggravatedActivism Day
Amidst a growing intolerance towards the right to protest, Netpol has been keen to remind everyone that protest is not illegal – not yet – but it has become a lot more uncertain. Together, we need to create the conditions to challenge the spread of uncertainty.
That’s why we have called on campaigners to avoid seeing themselves in isolation from others and to understand that the threat of oppressive policing falls on all of us – so we better start offering solidarity to each other.
