Members of the climate action group Extinction Rebellion gathered outside Newcastle Police station to rally against the Government's controversial new crime bill on Tuesday, which aims to clamp down on disruptive and noisy protesters.
Around 20 demonstrators were spotted outside Forth Banks Police Station with banners just after 7.30pm.
The XR members brought speakers and pots and pans to the evening protest, and were heard chanting "Kill the Bill" and "this is what democracy looks like".
