Labour MPs plan to oppose move to restrict protest at animal testing sites

🤖AI Özeti

Labour MPs are preparing to oppose a government proposal that seeks to restrict protests outside animal breeding and testing facilities by designating them as 'key national infrastructure.' This move has raised alarms among campaigners who view it as a threat to the long-standing tradition of peaceful protest. The amendment to the Public Order Act 2023, which is being pushed through with minimal parliamentary oversight, has garnered significant criticism for expanding police powers without public consultation.
