No. Though I'd imagine it's his sort of thing.
It is outrageous to be fair.

The police have a very difficult job with mass crowds in these situations. It’s a potential terrorist hotspot and with people getting injured with overspill of crowds. They’ll be all be on duty for hours and it’s hardly much fun.

The last thing the need is some twat who thinks he’s being edgy shouting his mouth off which in itself can inflame the crowd.

If he wants to make a stand surely he should confront the courts by himself and plead his case.

Should it be a crime to make anti monarchy comments in public?

People have been arrested for holding up placards saying not my king, its scandalous.

They made anti monarchy statements and got arrested. Do you agree they should have been?

yes as it’s a breach of public order and likely to cause an affray. If the crowd started attacking him should they have stood and watched him get a kick in?

And the far right are very selective in when they champion freedom of speech.

Well as I say the police could have done nothing and let him have a shoe in.

Then protect people’s right to protest or in some cases just state facts, don’t arrest them.

So you should arrest people to save them from assault?!
You're arguing that gobbling off is a more serious offence than assaulting someone.

his actions were provocative and if no police were there he’d be whining afterwards they weren’t protecting him - what was he protesting about out of interest?

Imagine swaggering down to the pub later to tell everybody you defended Prince Andrew in public.

Even worse, imagine swaggering down the pub later to tell everybody you were the little twat who heckled him.

the kid was probably a nob but the fat mess that tried to start on the 8 stone student was laughable
