'Kill the Bill' protesters confront police at G7

The "Kill the Bill" protest capped off three days of wide-ranging demonstrations in Cornwall, southwest England, where leaders from the world's Group of Seven nations have held their first summit in two years.

Similar "Kill the Bill" protests have taken part across the UK in recent months in response to the proposed Policing, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill.

The bill aims to toughen measures officers can take to disperse demonstrations, such as imposing time and noise limits, which campaigners and activists fear would be used to curb dissent.
