Britain prides itself on being a country of peaceful protest. But after the Coronation, people are asking if that’s still true. New laws - brought in a few days before the event - give the police sweeping powers to stop dissent. In the hours before Charles was crowned, anti monarchy protestors were arrested, detained and then released without charge. By then the event was over, and their chance to protest. Politicians from all sides are calling for a review. Nish Kumar and Coco Khan investigate what rights people still have to protest without ending up in a police cell.
Inspired by Crooked Media’s ‘Pod Save America’, their mission is to find solutions to Britain’s political problems - and have a laugh while they’re doing it. Subscribe now so you don't miss the video podcast, or subscribe here to listen each week:
