Evidence here of police violence against the demonstratiors on Wednesday, many of whom were school children. This was denied by the Met Police before now but the evidence is there for all to see. The Guardian has also reported on the comments of those who were there to witness it.
Violence of protestors is condemned but state violence is condoned. The Met Police Commissioner is also ramping up the presssure claiming that we can expect more violent demos. Has the ConDem government decided to call out the cavalry as their predecessors called out the cavalry against the miners and the Yeomanry at Peterloo? So much for a government respecting civil liberties. There must be the strongest protest about this at the highest levels of London and national politics. I would hope that the Green London Assembly members will condemn it also any candidates who hope to stand for the Assembly in 2012.
