Public Order Bill - I led on a amendment to lower Govt's proposed threshold on definition of 'serious disruption'. It was the the draft legislation’s first defeat in the Lords 👇 @LabourLordsUK theguardian.com/politics/202…
NEW: #PublicOrderBill amendt (45), led by Con Peer Bns Sugg with cross-party support, passes without vote (on a procedural technicality) & Cl.9 will now cover both direct & indirect actions that could influence decisions to access, provide or facilitate abortion services
NEW: 2nd Govt defeat on #PublicOrderBill, as Peers vote 224-221 AGAINST Govt-backed amendt (8) to limit the scope of defence in a disruptive protest, so that protesting “an issue of current debate” wouldn't be a reasonable excuse for the Act’s offences
NEW: Govt Defeated on #PublicOrderBill, as Peers vote 243-221 FOR @Vernon_Coaker-led cross-party amendt (1) to lower Govt's proposed threshold on definition of 'serious disruption', to refer to harm that may result in prolonged disruption of access to essential goods/services
