I had to read through your comment a few times to try to understand it. I think what you're saying is that ecological campaigning groups (particularly, I would guess, those such as XE without a formal hierarchy) are perceived by the current British government to be a threat to the establishment and so they want to prohibit these groups' use of encrypted group chats.
Personally, I don't think this is a particularly legitimate concern (and by extension, not one which I would assume the government has), since the whole point of revolutions is that they don't need to be planned; they are a groundswell of popular opinion turned violent. Even if encrypted group chats were necessary for ecological campaigning groups, I don't believe they are popular enough among the British public or violent enough to make even a minor dent in the Britain establishment.
