Supreme court ruling on disruption at ExCeL Centre in 2017 is hailed as an affirmation of right to protest

Four demonstrators who formed a blockade outside a London arms fair have had their convictions quashed by the supreme court, in what has been hailed as an affirmation of the right to protest.

Nora Ziegler, Henrietta Cullinan, Joanna Frew and Chris Cole were charged with highway obstruction after using “lock-on” devices to block an approach road to the ExCeL Centre in Docklands, east London, when it hosted the Defence and Security Equipment International (DSEI) arms fair in 2017.
