  • Street Preachers’ Charter

    Paul Eddy

    An experienced Christian barrister is calling for the police to help draw up a Street Preachers’ Charter.

    Paul Diamond, who has represented Christians in UK courts and at the European Court, has formally asked the College of Policing if he could work with officers on a Charter to try to stop evangelists being arrested and then often released without charge. It comes in the wake of several arrests of street preachers who subsequently had their fines overturned, prosecutions withdrawn and won compensation.
