If your Quaker Meeting House arrests commentary included the phrase:
[arrested] 'on suspicion of conspiracy to cause a public nuisance'... as many of us thought it might, you/we were right.
two days late the story reaches the Guardian... while other (Right) news sources are taking the Police line that Youth Demand were threatening to 'close London down'...
and so it goes on; repression & then justification via conspiracy projection
@ChrisMayLA6 So, when are the police planning to arrest the farmers who *actually* shut down London?
No, I think you'll find that was altogether different....
@ChrisMayLA6
Maybe we should organise a “Farmers for Gaza” protest, or a “Farmers against Big Oil” protest. Seems like that will be completely tolerated. Hmm.
well they already have the name: Farmers Demand....
@ChrisMayLA6 @KimSJ it would be a shame if someone told the police that the next farmers protest was going to incorporate demands about climate change and Gaza...
@ChrisMayLA6 thought police?
The Filth always lie to justify their violence and oppressive behaviour.
Be in no doubt that the strategy and direction for this heavy handed and violent oppression of protest is coming directly from the UK government, rather than the Met 'freelancing'.
@essjayjay @ChrisMayLA6
Yes, why else would they intervene at an event like this.
One thing the #spycops inquiry has revealed is that the policy went all the way to the top, Thatcher herself.
Yes, also the violent crushing of the miners' strike ('the battle of Orgreave') in the 1980s was also at the behest of Snobby Roberts' government.
That's the decade when the foundations were laid for capitalist-fascism.
No surprise then, that the despicable Starmer 'came out' as a Thatcher fan and boot-licker.
@essjayjay @ChrisMayLA6
Yep.
Political freedom is a sham, however much we think we're better than other countries. We're not. Until now, maybe just better at hiding it.
