The pro-life charity Life is considering legal action after the charity’s exhibits at the Lambeth Country Show was removed in July.
Life had applied in January to have a charity stall at the show, and their exhibits focused on scientific images of life in the womb and promoting their counselling services.
They said that as the evening progressed, a few people became aggressively vocal and challenged them on their pro-life position.
When Life arrived for the second day of the show they found the marquee and all of their possessions had been completely removed from Life’s pitch.
The organisers said the decision was made by Lambeth Council, because Life is against their values and not in line with the causes the council has been funding.
A Life spokesperson told local press that the removal was an attack on free speech.

Meanwhile protesters outside Scottish abortion clinics are being monitored by police with a view to a possible crackdown.
Aileen Campbell, the public health minister, said that pro-life protests could be distressing for women and action may be required.
