During the protests against the DSEI arms fair, many people were stopped and searched under the Terrorism Act 2000. At the time, Liberty announced that they were seeking a High Court injunction against using anti-terrorist powers on peaceful anti-war demonstrators and asked for people to contact them (original article).
Today, the hearing finally began at the High Court, with a student and independent journalist seeking a judicial review. More information can be found in a BBC article.

Or levels of policing....

(oh yeah and not a single arrest!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Me, I'd feel much safer if i was at a footie match and there was a 1:4 ration of fans to cops.
Old dears would feel much safer spending their pensions at Asda if there was probably a nice policeman to help her with her shopping.
The people of Nottingham would sleep easier tonight if the same level of policing was directed at gun crime in the city and suburbs.
