However, the new PSPO has faced a legal challenge from the Free Speech Union which says there are issues with the wording of the PSPO and also with the consultation that was carried out in May. The decision was called in to the scrutiny panel by chairman Cllr Phil Fellows due to the council receiving a letter under the pre-action protocol for judicial review from the Free Speech Union (FSU). The FSU said it would apply to judicially review the PSPO decision.

Kathy Bailes, The Isle of Thanet News, 21st August 2024.

Welcome to the Free Speech Union
