Re: Students Rioting in London.

Strange - the last time someone took the Police to court for kettling, they (the plaintiff) lost; must be a new definition of illegal I hadn't come across before.....
Quote:
the law lords ruled that the Met had been acting lawfully in containing Austin and other peaceful protests because doing so was necessary to control some elements within the crowd who were committing violence.

The law lords said theirs was a "pragmatic approach" that took into account the reason police decided to contain the demonstrators. However, for containment to be lawful, they ruled police must use the tactic in good faith, proportionately and for no longer than is necessary

Because that is some of what was a longer rant from the group you see in the video. Other snippets missing from that was the threat that there will be more of there "good natured but radical protesting" to come.
I think it was except Solomon's nonsensical rant was just before. At the start of the video you can see the cameras panning away from her.

I know first hand what a plastic bullet can do, I have fired a few in anger

My point was that kettling is far less of an evil than the three alternatives i stated above

I've just watched this on sky and according to Tamsin Ormond,Charlotte Gerada and Bruce Kent ,kettling is the cause of the violence (ROFL) ,if think being kept in one area is bad then god only knows what the rsponse will be if water cannons and plastic bullits are used

Re: Students Rioting in London.

Well he might not know what the Cenotaph is but he sure knows what the inside of a Police cell looks like.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...-Cenotaph.html

Quote:
The son of Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour has been arrested after he was photographed climbing the country's most revered war memorial during violent student protests.

Police said a 21-year-old man was arrested today on suspicion of violent disorder, theft and "attempted criminal damage of the Union flag on the Cenotaph."
Hmmm, latex gloves on. I'm sure that was just in case he got cold and not to avoid fingerprints

Re: Students Rioting in London.

You do realise that there are people who are not going to believe your source.

To help them out, the same story in the Guardian, BBC news.

You can imagine the lame excuse he will come out with " Honest your honour i had latex gloves on in case i had to carry out first aid and the stone was not mine as you can see i did not have hold of it"

It does look a bit suspect. I'm sure one of the photo-bods on here can confirm if it's genuine or not.
