Summary

The Government’s emergency measures to keep public places empty are proving to be a rat’s nest. Even senior police officers and prosecutors don’t fully understand the law. Prosecutions are falling apart. And civil liberties groups are calling for a review of all penalties. Constitutional expert and Remainiacs regular DAVID ALLEN GREEN talks to Ayesha Hazarika about bad law made in haste, and what we can look forward to in the inevitable Public Inquiry. “We’ve enforced public health legislation as if it were public order emergency.” “The regulations that created perhaps the widest-ranging prohibitions in peacetime never had a parliamentary vote.” “It may well be that the litigation will go on longer than the virus did.” “We’re supposed to nod along in a public health emergency… but how much are we nodding along?” Presented by Ayesha Hazarika. Produced by Andrew Harrison. Assistant producer Jacob Archbold. Music by Kenny Dickinson. Audio production by Alex Rees. THE BUNKER is a Podmasters Production.
