What do folks make this while everyone was on the fuel issue and pasty worries this was in the guardian.
Scaremongering? Cry for help? Plea for Government get around table?
You can only assume these would be off duty police oficers if they do have this event. Cant see how they get around no strike action rule. Would the general public support this.
What happpens if the ballot is overwhelming YES.
If the event went ahead could potentially see situation uneasy government dont want them near parliment. That police on duty would have to prevent off duty police access.

Rank-and-file police officers are to stage a protest over proposed changes to their pay and conditions.
The Police Federation said it was planning to hold an event in central London on 10 May. It would not confirm what its plans involve. It comes as the federation's 135,000 members across England and Wales are being balloted on whether they want the right to strike.
Along with the armed forces and prison officers, the police are banned in law from taking industrial action.
