Unauthorized demonstration in London

Unauthorized demo in London, England, against SOCPA legislation which criminalities freedom of expression and freedom of assembly within a zone around Parliament. This legislation is under review and fears are that it might be extended.

After meeting up in Trafalgar Square it was decided to go for a walk in 'Our streets'. The police were pretty laid back to begin with while several places of interest were visited such as the Home Office, New Sotland Yard, MI5, Parliament Square and Downing Street. They even allowed a sit down in the road for a short while in Parliament Square but then began forcing people back onto the pavement. The walk then proceeded to Downing Street where people sat down just outside the gates, and then lay down in the road. Several people were arrested, including Brian Haw and Steve Jago. The people lying down in the road were dragged back into the crowd outside Downing Street.

The lack of humanity from bloggers on this page astounds me. Protest is a democratic right - why would any one want to give that up?

Power to the people. I am sorry I couldnt be there! Well done guys.

Our rights were not given to us by Governments, they were fought for by protest.

Now that same protest is controlled and regulated by Government in order to prevent people from bringing about change.

@MRSstraightA true democracy in large nations is a fallacy, everyone actually physically having a hand in running the country is unworkable which is why we actually live in a constitutional monarchy.

As for toffs in parliament maybe on the TOry side of the house but there a few on the Labour side.

[MRSstraightA]

**that then opened up true democracy for the people previously it was parliament full of toffs dictating what the rules for governing the country.**

: )

Get out of here !

At best (very best) you could argue we are functioning duocracy, but certainly not a democracy in any real sense - Lab/Con that is your choice for national government, it has been for generations and will likely be that way for many more.

And Parliament is undoubtedly still full of toffs.
