A human rights group has accused Nottingham City Council
of attempting to "ban homelessness". Liberty claims a new Public
Spaces Protection Order (PSPO) will mean people are forbidden from giving food

be used instead to tackle businesses and charities distributing nuisance
leaflets and flyers. The authority said it was looking to manage anti-social
behaviour within a "restricted zone" in the city centre. Read more on
