Ban all face coverings at all protests and demonstrations

Summary

Face coverings at protests allow individuals to hide their identity, making it harder to prevent and investigate crime, disorder, and intimidation. We call for a clear, universal ban on face coverings at protests to ensure accountability and public safety. Peaceful protest is a fundamental right, but it must be exercised responsibly. When people conceal their identity, we believe it undermines trust, enables anti-social behaviour, and limits effective policing. A consistent, no-exceptions rule would provide clarity, deter disorder, and protect both the public and those taking part in lawful demonstrations.
