A Labour Party-run council in England has sparked outrage by proposing a sweeping injunction that could imprison Christian street preachers for up to two years over claims of causing "offense" or "distress."
Rushmoor Borough Council, covering Farnborough and Aldershot, has faced accusations of attempting to criminalize Christians for preaching, praying and distributing Bibles in public spaces.
The council initially applied for the injunction in February, citing complaints about noise, public disruption and distress caused by street preachers.
