Brexit Man says Britain is not North Korea!

 

Anti-Brexit Campaigner - Steve Bray

Since his amplifiers were seized by the police in June, for protesting in Westminster, Steve Bray's crowdfunding appeal, has now reached £230,000, which pays for him to keep going. 

For the last five years, Bray, known as "Stop Brexit Man", has been staging a noisy protest around Westminster where he belts out songs, shouts at leave supporting politicians, and heckles interviewees. Initially, Bray began his protest following the referendum result in 2016, to leave the E.U. Bray, who lived in the town of Port Talbot, in South Wales, said he was dismayed that the people of Port Talbot, who live in one of the most socially deprived areas of the UK, had voted by a majority to leave the E.U. when the E.U. had ploughed shed loads of money into the area.

The new Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Act', introduced by the Home Secretary, Priti Patel, strengthens police powers to curb protests, even one-person protests, to control noise levels and it increases the "controlled" area around parliament. Critics say that the House of Commons is likely to be a focus for protest, because that's where the laws are enacted. 

Bray has denounced the police actions as fascism and he says he will continue to protest. Bray says Britain is not North Korea, and he will defend the right of free speech and the right to protest.
