"Police should pay more attention to utmost left-wing extremists, and fresh rules are needed to restrict the right to protest," wrote an independent advisor to the British government's anti-political force study published on Tuesday.
Lord Walney, in the past Labour organization MP, now an independent political force prevention advisor assessed British democracy as being at a crossroads due to left-wing radicalism. He stressed that "too small attention was given to serious forms of violence, intimidation and incitement to hatred from the far left".
I see a worrying gap in our knowing of the utmost left, which activists do not routinely usage violent methods, but systematically search to undermine our belief in parliamentary democracy and the regulation of law," he wrote in a 292-page report.
He warned that specified utmost left-wing movements could origin "great economical harm and deplete police resources". He called on the government to “necessarily” address this problem. In the report, he wrote that there is simply a "widely left-wing subculture" active in climate campaigns, anti-racism and anti-Israeli activism, which promotes anti-capitalist, anarchist and anti-establishment ideologies.
The study argues that the government should address cognition gaps in ministries and law enforcement authorities on ideology, tactics and entities within the framework of "extremely left-wing and anarchist" protest movements, and intelligence services and the Ministry of Home Affairs should classify threats based on an assessment of their "the tactics of achieving the changes and visions of the planet they want to create".
Lord Walney recommended government that would make it easier for companies and individuals to attract groups specified as Just halt Oil, Extinction Rebellion and Insulate Britain to financial work for the disruptions and losses resulting from their protests. It besides proposes that the police make greater usage of the surveillance of protesters, and that erstwhile deciding to let or prohibit a protest, they should take into account the "cumulative disruption and damage" resulting from them, e.g. the consequence of protests in the Gaza War is an increase in the number of anti-Semitic hatred crimes.
He besides proposed to introduce a complete ban on face blocking during protests and to consider setting up buffer zones around parliament and parliamentary offices to prevent physical attacks on Members.
