  • Restoration of the Right to Protest at Parliament
    Law, Crime and History (2013) 1 LETTING DOWN THE DRAWBRIDGE: RESTORATION OF THE RIGHT TO PROTEST AT PARLIAMENT Kiron Reid1 Abstract This article analyses the history of the prohibition of protests around Parliament under the Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005. This prohibited any demonstrations of one or more persons within one square kilometre of the Houses of Parliament unless permission had been obtained in writing from the police in advance. This measure both formed part of a pattern of the then Labour Government to restrict protest and increase police powers, and was symbolically important in restricting protest that was directed at politicians at a time when politicians have been very unpopular. The Government of Tony Blair had been embarrassed by a one-man protest by peace campaigner, Brian Haw. In response to sustained defiance, Mr. Blair’s successor as Labour Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, and opposition Conservative and Liberal Democrat MPs pledged to remove the restrictions, but this was not acted on by Parliament until September 2011. This article argues that the original restrictions were unnecessary, and that the much narrower successor provisions could be improved by being drafted more specifically. Keywords: protest, demonstration, protest at Parliament, freedom of speech, Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005, Brian Haw. Introduction This is about the sorry tale of sections 132-138 Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005 (SOCPA).2 These prohibited any demonstrations of one or more persons within one square kilometre of the Houses of Parliament unless advance written permission had been obtained from the Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis.

  • Mark Wallinger: State Britain: Tate Britain, London, 15 January – 27 August 2007
    Mark Wallinger: State Britain: Tate Britain, London, 15 January – 27 August 2007 Yesterday an extraordinary work of political-conceptual-appropriation-installation art went on view at Tate Britain. There’ll be those who say it isn’t art – and this time they may even have a point. It’s a punch in the face, and a bunch of questions. I’m not sure if I, or the Tate, or the artist, know entirely what the work is up to. But a chronology will help. June 2001: Brian Haw, a former merchant seaman and cabinet-maker, begins his pavement vigil in Parliament Square. Initially in opposition to sanctions on Iraq, the focus of his protest shifts to the “war on terror” and then the Iraq war. Its emphasis is on the killing of children. Over the next five years, his line of placards – with many additions from the public - becomes an installation 40 metres long. April 2005: Parliament passes the Serious Organised Crime and Police Act. Section 132 removes the right to unauthorised demonstration within one kilometre of Parliament Square. This embraces Whitehall, Westminster Abbey, the Home Office, New Scotland Yard and the London Eye (though Trafalgar Square is exempted). As it happens, the perimeter of the exclusion zone passes cleanly through both Buckingham Palace and Tate Britain. May 2006: The Metropolitan Police serve notice on Brian Haw to remove his display. The artist Mark Wallinger, best known for Ecce Homo (a statue of Jesus placed on the empty fourth plinth in Trafalgar Square), is invited by Tate Britain to propose an exhibition for its long central gallery.

Mai 1928 fuhr der Rheingold erstmals von Hoek van Holland Aund Amsterdam nach Basel. Namensgebend war der sagenumwo- bene Nibelungenschatz. Die Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft und die MITROPA machten mit dem violett-cremefarbenen Pullmanzug zunächst ein gutes Geschäft. Insbesondere erwies er sich auch als Trumpf ge- genüber dem von der Internationalen Schlafwagengesellschaft angebotenen Konkurrenzzug Edelweiss Amsterdam – Basel via Brüssel, Luxemburg und Straßburg. Für die meisten Reisenden bedeutete eine Fahrt im Rheingold mehr als nur hochkomfortabel ans Ziel zu gelangen. Wohlig in weiche Sessel zurück- gelehnt, ließen sie an den breiten Fenstern die Rheinlandschaft vorüberzie- hen, genossen deren sich im Streckenabschnitt Koblenz – Mainz entfaltende Pracht mit Burgen und Schlössern, malerischen Städten und Dörfern, reben- bewachsenen Hängen und dem weltberühmten Loreleyfelsen. Nicht zuletzt trug der enorme Werbeaufwand mit künstlerisch gestalteten Plakaten und Prospekten zum Erfolg des deutschen Pullmanzuges bei, Wa- gendurchläufe bis Luzern und Zürich erhöhten seine Attraktivität. Doch die 1930 voll einsetzende Wirtschaftskrise traf ihn gleichsam wie der auf dem Goldschatz im Rhein lastende Fluch des Nibelungenkönigs Alberich. Ab 1933 mieden ausländische Reisende die Route durch das von den National- sozialisten beherrschte Deutsche Reich, zudem gingen die Fahrgastzahlen aufgrund verschärfter Devisenkontrollen zurück. Erst die 1936 gesenkten Fahrpreiszuschläge und die 1938 deutlich angehobene Reisegeschwindig- keit bescherten dem Rheingold wieder mehr Zuspruch.
