The Free Speech Union is in Margate this morning (August 12) to announce legal action against Thanet council over its latest alcohol and antisocial behaviour Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO) for Margate, Ramsgate, Broadstairs and Westgate.
The renewed PSPO was initially approved by Thanet council in July last year but rescinded just weeks later following a threat of costly legal action by the Free Speech Union, largely based around restrictions on the use of ‘foul’ language.
