EXCLUSIVE: THUG protesters will face up to 14 years in jail under tough new laws to stop public protests becoming battlegrounds.

New powers to tackle violent protesters, including new public disorder, affray and violent disorder offences, will be put to Parliament by the ­Andrews Government before the end of the year.

The laws will also target those hiding behind face masks — with higher penalties for cowards shielding their identities from police.

Details of the clampdown come as extreme right and left-wing groups prepare to face off today in the CBD.

The Sunday Herald Sun can reveal that under proposed changes, those found guilty of public disorder would face prison for 12 months and up to two years if they wear a mask.
