A form of fence and a protest (6)

I believe the answer is:

picket

(Other definitions for picket that I've seen before include "Strike activist" , "Strikers' blockade" , "Pale" , "Kind of fence or striking workers" , "Group of workers on strike outside place of employment" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
