Headline seems overly generous to him. Seems his support is reliant on them promising not to actually block the port again. Which would seem to completely defeat the point of the protest.

As a result of our meeting and my request, Rising Tide provided me with a written commitment to use their best endeavours to ensure all participants obey police directions.

Specifically, this includes directing people to remain close to the shore and not enter the shipping channel, nor make movements that suggest they are attempting to get into the channel.
