Oh yeah, I'd just been assuming the caption was accurate. Watching the video now, seems like mostly shield blows, although being hit with a big plastic shield still probably counts as violence imo.

Having both on the same day will cause all sorts of issuesFrom what I can tell Palestine solidarity campaign have called the next demo for two weeks time, the 11th.
I expect there's appetite for people to go out next Saturday, but presumably psc does the main organising, stewarding etc, so curious to see what happens.
The 11th is remembrance Day which could be.... interesting

Dunno if there's enough crossover between the organisers that PSC decided to let people focus on that? But then I don't know why they'd do that when the last demo ran alongside the UFFC one. Lots of acronyms there, hopefully my post's still readable.
I'm not sure it could have been different, the timing, given the pressure of the situation and that all these things are in at least some measure the result of negotiation with the police who have their own agenda in terms of managing 'disruption' in the centre of London. The uffc demo organised months ago no doubt, the psc one at much less noticethought it was good that they gave uffc a platform to speak despite organising a demo at the same time
