Re: Police to get tough on internet trolls.

Their political correspondence from Westminster Mark Darcy described it as a massive bill that is now starting to make its way through Parliament. He went on to say that it will cover a wide variety of user generated content, such as inciting or threatening violence, hate crime against those in the protected groups eg disabled, black, LGBT+ people, financial crime, scams, protection of children from harmful material, cyber flashing, posting material that triggers epileptic fits etc.
Is there anywhere that one can view the list of protected groups?

Just asking to see if I, as a white able bodied male heterosexual (as I recall) pensioner, sound of mind and body, with no political or religious affiliation, perhaps belong to one of them . . . or am I now in the minority and allowed to be abused?

edit: apparently I may fall into a special category as I'm classed (statistically) as overweight and smoke/drink, therefore at risk of a multitude of illnesses both physical and mental, although I think being a sarcastic grumpy old fart isn't an illness as such, but more an enhanced life skill
