Here it is!

""The offence is created by section 4 of the Public Order Act 1986:

(1) A person is guilty of an offence if he -

    (a) uses towards another person threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour, or
    (b) distributes or displays to another person any writing, sign or other visible representation which is threatening, abusive or insulting,

with intent to cause that person to believe that immediate unlawful violence will be used against him or another by any person, or to provoke the immediate use of unlawful violence by that person or another, or whereby that person is likely to believe that such violence will be used or it is likely that such violence will be provoked.

This is a summary offence. It is punishable with imprisonment for a term not exceeding six months, or a fine not exceeding level 5 on the standard scale, or both.[2]""

Also section 5 Public order offences.

""Section 5 makes it an offence to use "threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour, or disorderly behaviour" or to display "any writing, sign or other visible representation which is threatening, abusive or insulting" within the hearing or sight of a person "likely to be caused harassment, alarm or distress thereby".

Section 5 has been used to arrest and/or prosecute (for example) religious campaigners against homosexuality, a British National Party member who displayed anti-Islamic posters in his window and people who have sworn at the police.""

The government have announced that they are "not minded to oppose" a House of Lords amendment to remove the word insulting from the act.
