Sound systems playing and people dancing on the front of the national gallery

 

[Mr.Bishie]

Thatcher effigy tied to lamppost and other things thrown on, think may be planning on burning it. Crowd not really petering out

 

[Ax^]

I'm carrying a little too much to lose

Great fucking night and that jump was fucked

I am not sure what the greater risk was: the police or the drop!

I have sound off because I have six feeds open - am minding gear in a bar just round the corner.

Sooo postmodern, dahlinks- watching events 600m away on multiple webcams

Excuse my naivety in these situations but why kettle. Don't they just end up with everyone stuck there even longer.

Excuse my nativity in these situations but why kettle. Don't they just end up with everyone stuck there even longer.

Seems like overkill, kettling a crowd of 300 people.

 

[Mr.Bishie]

They may not. If they do, they'll be wanting to wrap the party up. Drip release. Fuck off home or get nicked.

Can they legally do that? I mean, what's the legal basis?

Kettling saps the spirit of the protesters and leaves them cold, wet, tired and hungry so all they want to do is go home. It's an extremely dodgy ad legally dubious practice IMO.
