A refresher, the rights to freedom of assembly, freedom of association and freedom of speech. Yeah....so it was basically like one of them summer of love protests, then? Remember those previous comments about rose-tinted-glasses? That.

It certainly didn’t turn out to be the violent hate March those opposed to the protest insisted it would be and that rightwing extremists would have turned it into if the Police hadn’t acted so decisively. 300,000 people demonstrated, a tiny fraction broke the law and the police are taking action against them. Met Police Chief Mark Rowley’s decision to permit the protests and focus attention on dealing with those individuals breaking the law has been vindicated. Now time to hold Minister of State Braverman accountable for her dog whistle to the rightwing extremists. 6 1

Popular Post billd766 Posted November 12, 2023 Popular Post Posted November 12, 2023 I will make no response to these links. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-67390514 Rishi Sunak has condemned "violent, wholly unacceptable" actions by far-right groups and "Hamas sympathisers" after protests and clashes in London. About 300,000 pro-Palestinian protesters marched to call for a ceasefire, in the biggest UK rally since the Israel-Gaza war began. Counter-protesters made up the "vast majority" of 126 arrests on Saturday, police said. Scuffles first broke out shortly after 10:00 GMT as police attempted to stop a crowd of people carrying St George's flags marching along Embankment towards Whitehall where the Cenotaph - the 103-year-old war memorial - is located. Officers faced aggression from some of the counter-protesters - who include some far-right groups - near the Cenotaph, the Met said. The group, which had been chanting "England 'til I die", pushed through the police barrier, with some shouting "let's have them". However, a two-minute silence held at the Cenotaph at 11:00 GMT to mark Armistice Day was observed "respectfully", police added. More than 80 counter-protesters who "tried to reach the main protest march" were arrested to "prevent a breach of the peace", police said. Ten others were arrested for other offences including possession of offensive weapons, affray, and possession of drugs. Scotland Yard said many of the counter-protesters arrested were connected to football hooliganism, and some of them had previous convictions for football violence. At one point the march, organised by the Palestine Solidarity Campaign, extended from the Hilton Hotel in Park Lane to the US Embassy in Nine Elms - a distance of roughly 2.5 miles. Organisers believe 800,000 people attended but police estimated 300,000. The despicable actions of a minority of people undermine those who have chosen to express their views peacefully." He said the clashes "utterly disrespects" the honour of "our Armed Forces", saying "that is true for EDL thugs attacking police officers and trespassing on the Cenotaph" and also for "those singing antisemitic chants and brandishing pro-Hamas signs and clothing on today's protest". No major protest is scheduled to take place on Remembrance Sunday, although the policing operation will continue with some 1,375 officers deployed amid commemoration events in the capital. https://www.bbc.com/news/av/uk-67393758 There is more to read and see in both links. 5 1

For now I am delighted the right to peaceful protest has been upheld, that people engaging in criminality have been arrested and/or are being sought by the police and that the Minister of State who blew her dog whistle to the rightwing extremists has questions to answer. 2 1 4
