The argument isn't the ad hom, the way in which it's presented is the ad hom.

Yes, there is a 'right,' commemorating the sacrifices made by the fallen falls within freedom of expression.

The Met Police incident you refer to was for public safety in the midst of a pandemic, never before has the Remembrance Sunday event been closed to the public.
