I think there’s a Hillsborough parallel in the policing. The disaster was founded on the common view at the time that football crowds were a problem, a security issue, a volatile feral bunch that needed caging.

The police tactic of kettling stems from viewing all protests that way.

You haven’t read the Red Pepper article well have you? The writer says the police vans came down the street about 10 minutes AFTER the ambulance and medics had taken the poor chap to hospital. He states bottles and debris were thrown at these police vans but he noticed none when the medics were trying to help the chap. Seems like he was near enough to see the collapsed man’s face so surely he’d have noticed bottles being thrown.

Wait until the police in that video are told that their “defined benefit schemes” pensions are canceled/changed into “defined contribution schemes”.

Ha, The Labour Party, all politicians are just bottom feeders, who are fed at the bottom by the bankers/wankers they just rescued.
