//...an authoritaria n law which effectively gives the uk govt to take away the sacred right to protest if they feel like it// Alas that "sacred right" (which is actually certainly not sacred and very often, in the way the protests are organised, not a right) often involves curtailing the freedoms of many more people trying to go about their lawful business....

Where they are "wrong" is having a cause that they chose to call "Kill the bill" when that could quite reasonably be interpreted as "Kill the police".
People then march through the streets of London (you know, where "the bill" means "the police") chanting "Kill the bill" while the police are supposed to police them.
The idea that whoever chose that name didn't realise what they were doing is laughable. I credit them with more intelligence and malice.

//Could you not see yourself at a protest, NJ?//
Very unlikely. So unlikely as I think I could say "never".
I learned at a very early age that they serve no purpose, very rarely achieve their aims but inconvenience others to sometimes an alarming degree. There were some ER protests last year or whenever it was where lunatics were gluing themselves to Dockland Light Railway trains, and where one was summarily removed from the roof of a train by the baying mob. Reports highlighted that some travellers had been prevented from keeping urgent hospital appointments. Of course the ER nutters will say that's just too bad, if there's climate change there will be no hospitals, etc. etc. Try telling that to somebody suffering from cancer who was on their way for treatment.
Protests of the type under discussion here invariable cause such inconvenience and I actually believe protesters display supreme arrogance by thinking that their protests are far more important than the ability of others to go about their daily lives. I made this point earlier in this thread and received the response that of course the right to protest was far more important than avoiding inconvenience to others, so I rest my case.

// For example, the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights ...allows the restriction of the freedom to assembly if it is necessary [for] ...the protection of the rights and freedoms of others."//
Which is exactly my point. If I'm prevented from going about my business because a load of oiks have glued themselves to trains, that is a severe curtailment of my freedoms. It's more than inconvenience. Inconvenience is what follows when the points are frozen at Effingham Junction or there are pigs on the line at Strawberry Hill. Deliberately interfering with public transport is an infringement caused by others because they believe their cause is more important than my daily activities.
