British police faced criticism from civil liberties groups on Tuesday over their treatment of anti-monarchy protesters who have publicly challenged King Charles III's accession to the throne and the groundswell of public support for the royal family.
Footage went viral on social media on Monday of a female protester holding aloft a "Not My King" protest placard who was then confronted by at least four officers outside the UK parliament in London.
She was seen being escorted away from the spot, and was reportedly made to stand at another location away from the gates of parliament.
Lawyer and climate activist Paul Powlesland also wrote on Twitter that he had been warned by an officer that he risked arrest after he held up a blank piece of paper opposite parliament.
"He confirmed that if I wrote, 'Not My King' on it, he would arrest me under the Public Order Act because someone might be offended," he wrote alongside video showing him talking to an officer.

“Help Help, I’m being repressed!”
They are subjects. Not Citizens.
They Don’t have a 1St Amendment..
Charles is a fop.
He is also a globalist climate nutter.
He will never amount to the leader his mother or grandmother was.
The whole idea of royalty in this day and age is offensive. I’m talking about the institution, not the individuals.
Do we have it anymore?
“Bloody Peasant!”
I think the British people don’t get or don’t care or both that incidents like 4 cops strong arming a woman protestor who apparently was only carrying a sign that read “Not My King” are WHY respect for the formerly “GREAT” Britain inexorably continues to fall in America.
I thought Charles was deep into the climate change hysteria, no?
UK is in dire need of pro-monarchy people, even though the current royals might be worn out.
They Don’t have a 1St Amendment.
………………………….
We have it but Biden and the FBI are making sure we don’t have it much longer.
If you’re a Brit, he’s your king.
The end.
What on earth is wrong with the concept that a ruler has been given a sacred charge from God to rule over and to defend his country and people, and defend Christianity, and that he will indeed be held accountable by God for what he does or does not do during his reign?
Likewise, what on earth is wrong with the concept that people ought to obey just laws strictly, and render loyalty and service to their leaders (serve in whatever government roles they are required to and pay taxes), and to amend unjust and imperfect laws?
Queen Elizabeth 2 was as good as a political leader can get. If she had more duties and powers according to UK law she would have done more and better things for the UK.
You think it's better to have the system we have here, where the elections are rigged, where the politicians are these heathen sociopaths who start penniless and retire billionaires from their graft? Who pass phone-book-thick laws without reading them, just because some Arab pagan or Chinese bastard has them on their payroll? You think our politicians believe they owe God or anyone anything in the way of job performance?
No, they are arrogant, ignorant apostates, who believe in nothing but their narcissistic selves.
I would rather have a QE2 than a lying atheist creep like Biden ruling over me.
“the concept of the Divine Right of Kings...”
Except the God of the Bible warned the Israelites against yearning for a king, and told them exactly why they would regret it. All of those reasons still apply, and even more so now that God has given us a true king that no earthly man can aspire to.
>>She was seen being escorted away from the spot, and was reportedly made to stand at another location away from the gates of parliament.<<
At least she was not cuffed and placed in leg irons.
UK, you have nothing to worry about, for the time being.
Of course it is. That's why we need term limits.
Sheesh, aren’t you describing Biden?
That’s the same argument king Ahab used. And it’s demonic. “They walked in the ways of Jeroboam.”
