this is absolutely shocking couldn't find anything here, so:
quick overview of what happened yesterday, a peaceful protest was organised at Birmingham University . the event was to raise awareness of a number of demands by the group including; reduction of fees and an increase in bursaries, living costs & conditions and staff redundancies, pay ratio etc, to name a few (loads more check here: http://www.defendeducationbrum.org/our-demands/ )
what happened after ended in kettling, violent conduct by police AND the private security firm, culminating in arrests of around 14 people with hospitalisation's reported.
Suffice to say that reports of people smashing shit up was highly exaggerated by the Private security guys which resulted in the police being called. Shame on the authorities and the Dean at Birmingham University. Sickening.
