I wonder how they define grossly offensive, indecent and obscene! That seems a very broad far reaching law....
UK : East / West : Suffolk Cops Get *Gloucestershire* Rave Closed Down Unfortunately, Suffolk cops are as stubborn and tenacious as the ravers (many other constabularies wouldn't have bothered once the convoy had gone out of their force area)
Police in the North Cotswolds have shut down a rave in the Stanway Hill area after getting a tip off from police in Suffolk.
Officers arrived at the site just before 1am on Sunday as vehicles were beginning to congregate near to the site and turned away the large number of partygoers after seizing alcohol from them.Police shut down rave - Scotsman.com
Chief Superintendent Gavin Thomas, Cotswold and Stroud Divisional Commander, said: “This successful intervention shows that where we have clear information that an unlicensed event is going to take place, we will act to ensure it doesn’t happen.
“The original intelligence was received from Suffolk Police, so this is not just a great example of co-ordinated working within Gloucestershire Constabulary, but also of successful consultation between forces as well.

Anti Rave Laws: Amendments to Section 63 of the Criminal Justice Act U.K. Anti-Rave Legislation 2004
- The totalitarian state of the United Kingdom -
The totalitarian state of the United Kingdom is no longer the once futuristic Orwellian vision of "1984" but a prediction only twenty years too early to the day of the reality that we now live in.
For thousands of years of human history people in tribes, societies and civilisations have gathered in the evenings in groups to the music of the drums - dancing, celebrating and living.
You might be one of those weird and bizarre people who think that 20 people getting together to listen to music is a pretty fun and social thing .. as of this week in the year of our government 2004 the assembly of 20 people, be it even on private land, "at which amplified music is played at night (with or without intermissions); and (b) 'music' includes sounds wholly or predominantly characterised by the emission of a succession of repetitive beats." - (listening to music!) - is now illegal and classified as an "anti-social" public nuisance as defined in the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 - section 63 "Raves - Powers to remove persons attending or preparing for a rave" amended by the Anti-social Behaviour act 2003 section 58 "Raves" reducing the permitted numbers gathered in the open air for a rave (as trespassers or not) from 100 to 20 and additionally covering gatherings of 20 or more who are trespassing on land which is not in the open air (ie within a building).
Powers are unchanged with the addition of a further offence of making preparations for or attending a gathering subject to a direction within 24 hours of the direction. Yes - it is an offence to go to, or even prepare to go to a rave, within 24 hours of being stopped from visiting another one. A person guilty of an offence under this subsection is "liable on summary conviction to imprisonment for a term not exceeding three months or a fine not exceeding level 4 on the standard scale, or both."
We have now made the very human nature illegal, denying recognition of whom and what we actually are.
Liberty spokesperson Barry Hugill condemned the new laws: 'This is totally unacceptable, it should only be a crime to commit a crime. The government is introducing constraints and no-go areas the like of which haven't existed since wartime'.
Of course, some people argue that we are at war. At war against a something, a phenomenon, which is also a result of denying to recognise the basic and fundamental human requirements for existence - the concept of "terrorism".
Just keep dreaming about the right to assemble and express your opinion in these matters - be it for or against the idea that we should drop more bombs on people or be allowed to listen to music - there is now a law stating that just two people can constitute a "public assembly" giving the police power to impose conditions. In case two million people don't turn up again on the next international day of action and national anti-war demo on the 20th of March 2004 the limit of two people is probably a safe level to catch any level of uncomfortable expression.
Are two people still allowed to assemble to kiss? Love each other?
Answer 1: The European Convention on Human Rights: Article 11 - "Everyone has the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and to freedom of association with others, including the right to form and to join trade unions for the protection of his interests.", Article 10 - "Everyone has the right to freedom of expression. This right shall include freedom to hold opinions and to receive and impart information and ideas without interference by public authority and regardless of frontiers".
Answer 2: David Blunkett (a statement required under section 19(1)(a) of the Human Rights Act 1998) - "In my view the provisions of the Anti-social Behaviour Bill are compatible with the The European Convention on Human Rights."
Answer 3: "Freedom of speech is a right to be fought for, not a blessing to be wished for.", United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan, the Director-General of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), Federico Mayor, and the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, Mary Robinson, on the occasion of World Press Freedom Day, 3 May 1999.

small party Last year i had a party for a friend at my house. Since my house is not the largest , to avoid the place getting wrecked and make the most of the weather i set up the gazebo and we had it round the back garden . I live in residential area so there are other homes close to me and a few of the neighbours expressed they're dislike which i understand . This year i would like to do much the same but instead of using the back garden i have permission to use the land on a family firends farm . Would be no more than a few friends , 10 at most with a few beers and some music ( not a rig , just a small home soundsystem type ) , would this be o.k legally ? its not a rave , it may sound silly to ask but im not really all too clued up about about the law thats the reason . just to be on safe side , thanks
Can they still charge me??? I was round a friends house about a week and a half ago, and the police raided the house and found a ounce of weed and some personal on his table. Now I had nothing to do with the weed, however they arrested both of us and banged us both up.
I was searched and had nothing on me and hadn't smoked anything. They then interviewed me first as they said my friend was unfit to speak to due to drugs, and I told them I had no ideal about the ounce but had seen the personal. They then charged me with possession and bailed me.
They then spoke to my friend the next morning and he admitted it was all his and he's been charged and set a court date, however I've heard nothing back as to whats happening to me! I went to the cop shop a few days after and they refused to discuss it with me. They can't charge me still can they? Even though he's admitted the weed was his and I had nothing to do with it?

UK : East : Credit where credit’s due, Suffolk cops do something useful! just saw this on the cops' website - sadly there is now a increasing problem with violence in teenagers relationships (something which was way less common when I was a teen) and at least this shows cops are dealing with it seriously now..Of course I don't think teenage couples should be locked up for arguing but there may be times a youth needs a bobby to tell them that controlling/violent behaviour is not acceptable, IMO if ground rules are set when people are young it might help when they are older...
at the moment there is a real problem with DV amongst late teens/20 somethings and sadly it seems to be worse amongst "alternative" peer groups what won't talk to their parents or authorities to deal with it..
3. Teenage Domestic Violence (14-18yrs) Incidents within the Copleston, Northgate and St Albans High School catchments (IP3 & IP4). This priority was set in January 2010
In January 2010, you asked us to tackle Domestic Violence within teenage relationships and this is what we have done about it:
Objective
To address domestic violence incidents within teenage relationships the Safer Neighbourhood Team will evaluate results obtained following a SNT Policing Surgery student survey.
Update
Through partnership working the SNT will identify processes to enhance the understanding of legislation, improve the reporting structure and ensure delivery of support services to students who are victim of domestic violence and associated issues.
Outcome
As of February 2010 Safer Neighbourhood Team Officers have undertaken an evaluation of survey results obtained from consultation with students. A presentation has been compiled which sets out the main aims and objectives of this priority. This has been delivered to both Suffolk Police representatives and Partner Agencies. An action plan is also being compiled which sets out future intentions of the SNT.
