#occupy London....

So did anyone actually go on the march yesterday? Like the Occupy London banners? Or see any of the direct action at Panton Street? Get assualted by a manic-ninja-cop and thrown into a kettle for standing on the other side of a main road taking pictures of people with a banner on the roof of a building on Panton street? Spend an hour trying to reassure and negoiate on behalf of tourists that were assulated and kettled too? Held for 2 hours? Witness the abundance of undercover cops quietly winking their way out of the kettle, many of whom I have seen in the Bank of Ideas in the last 2 weeks? Let go, one by one, to walk a corridor of cops, videoed front, right, back, left, questioned and Section 60 searched?

I did. Photos later! :)

The banners looked great! saw you and said hello. I always seem to meet people now who talk about David Ike after seeming normal for 10 or 15 minutes oh well they might be right they seem nice enough.

We spoke yesterday? Which one were you? PM me please! :D

I NEVER talk about David Ike, I know you probably are not referring to me but your post could be misunderstood! ;)

Also, see edit to the post you quoted...my day got better!
 
Just to clarity Rutita made no mention of lizard overlords or the mayan calendar in our brief chat, and sorry to hear about all the filth, I've seen some spotter cards somewhere, could be handy :hmm:
 
Just been reported the University of Sheffield has banned, by court injunction, any protest or picket for the next year, this includes union strike pickets and any other type of political protest
there is an occupation happening there, pretty bad...

Isn't that what was tried on exactly a year ago, to the day? (a mix up?)

Is this thread about occupy London or is it a competiton of ego's?

It is the product of the ever dwindling ego ridden posters who frequent these parts but yes, it is about occupy London. There is not an essential contradiction between the two you know.

Why have you asked a question and then answered it? Do you want to pre-empt agreement?

Billionaire's free sheet in anti-activism shocker!

The evening standard is not a terrible paper but when the chips are down it knows which side it is on. And that is free parking in westminster after 6pm.

Yet the same Billionaire's other papers, The Independent and the 'i', are supportive, funny old world.
 
Last night, Police issued a Notice to the Legal Team at OccupyLSX. It was to let us know that our Occupation is now listed as a potential act of TERRORISM, so could be dealt with under the Anti-Terrorism Act

:eek:
 
that is bonkers
but they did the same to the wombles and rts, cunts

have to hit em back with humour like the Melbourne lot :D
 
The only terror is in their shitty bulletin. Interesting that this appears to be the only domestic terrorist threat mentioned.

Can we assume that they have decided to stop doing their job i.e monitoring actual terrorist grouplets intent on bombing london. Far more convenient of course to sit back reading streams of activist material and working out potential mind games to play out through the media and via officers living the good life "undercover".

Potential users of empty buildings should not be the subject of an anti terror bulletin.
 
This is the sort of thing that "domestic extremism" is defined as now though, and has been for some time (note that it doesn't call it terrorism, though obviously it means to link the two).
