Chrissy was formally charged on November 30th with an alleged breach section 7 of the Public Order Act 2023, a new offence brought into force on 03.05.23 in direct response to non-violent climate protests. Following the coming into force of the 2023 Public Order Act with its much harsher penalties aimed specifically at silencing particularly climate protestor, it is clear Chrissy now needs expert legal representation. Chrissy has asked that any funds remaining be used by Hodge Jones and Allen to support other JSO activists with their legal costs.
