I've had a look at the judgment.
It seems to depend on whether CM is a 'public procession' - defined, helpfully, as a procession held in public
. CM is outside the 'regular event' exemption, because it does not always follow the same route.
There is however an exemption for funerals
. Not sure they have to be human ones though. Is there a use here for all those squirrels, pigeons, foxes and deer which Jon takes out on his way to early morning TTs?
I'm sorry, I really should get out more, shouldn't I?
