There is something very wrong in this country when six young people meeting to discuss politics in a Quaker Meeting House are arrested by the police after a mass (twenty officers) invasion of the building (armed with tasers).

The freedom to protest, or even the freedom to meet in a room to discuss current affairs, are central to a democracy... if this freedom is now compromised (further), as it seems to be, we are in a very bad place!

@ChrisMayLA6 @Thebratdragon 2/ The law and the judiciary are 'obliged' to disregard the moral or ethical reasons behind a 'gathering of 6 persons or more for the purposes of political protest'. How they'd have dealt with the anti-apartheid rallies and the poll tax protest doesn't bear thinking about. We are visibly moving towards a totalitarian state. #Farage and #Reform must be rubbing their hands with glee.

@Palky55 @ChrisMayLA6 you mean the ones that turned into riots when the Met got heavy handed?

that is the whole plan, stop the protests gathering in numbers too big to handle, so send in the Gestapo to take out the organisers.
