Prague’s Speakers Corner to move from city centre

Prague’s Speaker’s Corner on Palacky Square in the city centre, where protestors need no formal license or permission to gather, will be moved elsewhere. Prague City Hall has begun negotiations with local authorities on relocating the site, arguing that possible meetings could cause traffic disruptions in the city. This Saturday, right-wing extremists are to gather on Palacky Square in reaction to their failure to march through Prague’s Jewish quarter last weekend.
