SNP challenges PM on police powers over protests
Following the arrests of republicans on Coronation day, Stephen Flynn asked Rishi Sunak if people could only protest on his terms.
The SNP Westminster leader also raised protests and strikes by public sector workers, but the prime minister said the police should have "extra powers" to allow people to get to school, hospital and work "without undue serious disruption".
