Regina (Kay) v Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis
House of Lords
“Since a procession could be commonly or customarily held even though on each occasion it took a different route, a monthly mass cycle ride through London which set off from a fixed starting place but the route of which was determined by whoever happened to be at the front at any one time was such a procession so as to be excluded from the statutory requirement for organisers of public processions to give the police prior notice of the event.”
