Police in Leeds have banned people from their own Streets

Police Inspector Miller Stands Proud with his dispersal order for Beeston hill in Leeds.
The order gives police and pcso, civilians pretending to be police the power to order people to leave the area or face 3 months in prison, even if they are living in the area where they are ordered to leave, the order also bans anyone under 16 who are prohibited from public spaces within the dispersal order zone from 9pm through to 6am, unless they are accompanied by a parent or a responsible adult over 18 years of age, which can be banned under the first order.
What exactly gives a civilian worker in a green jacket the power to order someone to leave the street where they live and the right to forbid children from playing on the streets where they live and the right to order people under 16 not to be on the streets where they live.
Is this one step to far ?
