Council asks for permanent injunction to stop protests

North Warwickshire council seeks to extend controversial order against ‘persons unknown’ for Kingsbury terminal

A council is trying to extend a controversial injunction against “persons unknown” to stop any future protests outside an oil terminal operated by Shell UK.

Lawyers for North Warwickshire borough council will argue in the high court on Tuesday that an interim injunction granted in 2022 should be made permanent to stop protests outside Kingsbury oil terminal in Tamworth.
