Description
The right to protest is fundamental to any democracy, and yet, in recent years, it feels as though the Conservative government is strangling that ability. For this episode of Law & Disorder, the gang – Helena Kennedy, Charlie Falconer and Nicholas Mostyn – are joined by a very special guest, Raj Chada, in order to look at the evolving picture of protest in our courts. From the Colston Four to Trudi Warner, some of the biggest cases of recent years are scrutinised by the team. This podcast was generously sponsored by Hodge Jones and Allen.

Music by Richard Strauss, arranged and performed by Anthony Willis & Brett Bailey. PR by Sally Jones. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
