Students take to the streets of London in protest at cuts and fee hikes, once again clash with riot police. Police set up a flash point to start the riot near parliament square, by deleberately blocking the march from continuing along the earlier designated route along Whitehall to Embankment. No doubt the police face cuts in spending, and by deliberatly setting up acts of provocation and riot flashpoints, they hope to avoid cuts in spending, i.e overtime for kettling, reduction in police numbers, etc. Also with this kind of police provocation, it attempts to smear the student campaign, by setting up riot flash points en -route to provoke students and workers into rioting and with this, give the right wing media all the "riot porn" (i.e the "planting" of a police van among protestors in a previous demonstration) they need to discredit the protestors. Kettling protestors in for hours on end, serves as "punishment" for protesting, for rising up against the system, and serves the police who want funding to continue without cuts.
The students and working people will not be intimidated by these acts of police provocations and will only serve to enrage the people even more. The minority that media love to trumpet on about starting the "acts of vandalism and violence" are made up of two groups....1....the government with their acts of violence against peoples living standards and rights, and 2....on the day of the protests and revolts against the system....the POLICE are the true instigators and violent minority that start the trouble. They were indeed outnumbered by the sheer numbers of people onto the streets fighting and resisting the cuts and unable to control the situation.
Force must be met by force....they attack....we counter attack. Only revolutionary MASS FORCE BY THE PEOPLE meted out to the perpertrators and instigators of violence...i.e. the police and government will topple this government and eventually the system.
The police should remain aware, that after yesterdays actions by the police to provoke a violent confrontation with the protestors, that they, the police, will ultimately fail to punish or intimidate protestors. The people will not be intimidated by the police and will mete out just punishment, like yesterday in ever more force in the future.
We will not be intimidated, shaken or moved by the vicious moves by the hated UK COPS.
DOWN WITH THE WITH THE HATED UK POLICE!
LONG LIVE THE STRUGGLE OF THE PEOPLE AGAINST AUSTERITY AND CAPITALIST EXPLOITATION!
OVERTHROW THE POWER!
FOR SOCIALIST REVOLUTION!
