It follows demonstrations last weekend including one where hundreds of people chanted “Kill the Bill” outside John Street police station, in Brighton.
There is already a visible Sussex Police presence, with officers once again ready to line John Street between the protesters and the police station.
Roads have been blocked including those leading to the Clock Tower at the North Street crossroads with West Street and Queen’s Road.
The bill has been criticised for placing greater restrictions on people’s right to protest.
⚠️ Due to the ongoing protest, most of our services are currently stationary and unable to proceed past Churchill Square and along North Street. We are looking to resolve this as soon as possible and can only apologise for the inconvenience at this time. ⚠️

Student and associated scuzzball.
No classes, not many drugs moving around and the pubs are all shut.
So they go down to the level then for a walk around town.
The more decent people they can inconvenience, the more they are happy.
Red fascists are always happy when they disturb others.
The rights we are afforded today were all gained through protest movements. From women’s suffrage to racial equality to the trade union movement, protest and resistance are the key drivers of change.
It is imperative that we fight to keep that right and to protect minority communities that are affected most by this bill.
I’m sorry if you’re midly inconvenienced by the protests but what is at stake is astronomically more important than you getting the bus..
Mildly inconvenienced? I was around the Clock Tower for about an hour, while speeches were being carried out, and traffic was at a complete standstill. Those speeches could have been held at a locaion where traffic would not have been so badly affected. But, no, the aim was to cause as much inconvenience to the general public as possible, including those relying on travel by bus And so it was held at the most central point in the city. And how typical of our leftist council to allow that to occur there, as they always do. Such an attitude did not sympathise me to the cause for which the protest was all about.
Off you pop Karl, we will look after ourselves.
Tarquin and Samantha are calling you for a spot more virtue signalling.
The Green/Momentum rent a rabble protest movement continues at the expense of residents.
