Hey everyone so I went to another protest today in Trafalgar square it started of peaceful with music then along came the police and attempted to surround the area people went to block them off unfortunately there was some clashes I decided to leave because I didn't feel totally comfortable being there and I thought there was a chance it could escalate it may have finished ok hopefully though it was a shame I still want to attend the next one though if it goes ahead

Seems the police has backed off and speeches are going ahead.
Glad to hear that seemed they wanted to be more aggressive
Well, in the end 'there is more us than them' rule applies. Protest is lawful (political protest is a reasonable excuse from the rule of 6) the fact that they don't like the cause doesn't matter.
I total agree we are within are rights to do so I didnt really want to get caught up in the violence so much
Harassing the people simply for exercising their right to protest is illegal. On the contrary, people standed up for themselves without violence. A lesson to the police.
I AGREE THEY ARE ATTEMTING TO HARASS PEOPLE IN PARTICULAR THE MAIN SPEAKERS ALL OF THE PEOPLE WERE PROTESTING PEACEFULLY UNTIL THE POLICE TURNED UP
Agree, it was a happy and peaceful event until the police started running into the area and provoking people. Eventually the riot police charged people and knocked them down with their batons. Very chaotic and aggressive policing and a misuse of resources.
