Staffordshire Police also said it would ban the use of face coverings at a protest in Tamworth on Saturday, where Britain First is planning a so-called March for Remigration.

So you can match through town calling for ethnic cleansing and that's peaceful protest, but a nan holding a sign is terrorism?

I think the nazi protest this article was about would welcome the pointy ones

They can be pointy if you're attending Semana Santa celebrations in Spain

That’s what they’re banning next (in the name of women’s rights)
