UK: Thousands join “Kill the Bill“ rally in Bristol

Subscribe to our channel! Hundreds of protesters rallied in Bristol on Sunday at the ’Kill the Bill’ protest to demonstrate against the passage of a new policing bill being debated in the British parliament. The proposed Police, Crime, Sentencing, and Courts Bill would see an increase in police powers, including allowing a start and finish time to be imposed on demonstrations. Activists have criticised the bill as an attack on civil rights and the liberty to freely stage rallies while increasing police powers. The bill has also been met with strong criticism from human rights groups including the UK arm of Amnesty International and the Rights of Women campaign group. The UK has seen several days of rallies across the country following the recent murder of Sarah Everard, with protesters expressing opposition to the proposed bill, which passed its second reading in UK Parliament on March 16. #KillTheBill #Bristol #UnitedKingdom #UK Video ID: 20210321-015 Video on Demand: http
