One of the comments:


used to laugh at the old lefties in the pub, who over a half pint of real ale and some roll ups, would berate the old bill as 'fascist tools of the establishment.' Now, I know they were right.

I doubt even if all had gone well that he would be back yet, but under the circumstances who knows?

No word from TMR yet, probably in a hostlery somewhere.

If he's not still in handcuffs I expect to see him later - Mrs TMR permitting, of course.

TMR is not used to public transport, he will probably come out in some allergic reaction.

With a bit of devious planning you could scupper that licencing law. After all whats to say that a 'protest' isnt in fact a piece of performance art, something not covered by the law..  rubschin:

It has been tried ~ the definition of a "demonstration" under the act apparently is that if a Police Officer THINKS it is a demonstration then it is.
According to the law permission has to be sought and obtained before any form of demonstration may take place.
Guido actually covers all this in his suggestion that people might like to "Go for a walk" ~ which is probably in itself an advertisement to attend a demonstration under the very elastic terms of the act.

Don't write me off, the IRA tried that and lost as well.

We were stopped and searched. The PCSO's that tried it in the first place were out of their depth, so called in the proper ones. They were O.K. - understood that we were merely "having a walk" but had to search us in case - photo of the Form 5090(X) attached where it says I was searched under the Section 44 Terrrorism Act 2002. There is so, so much more to say about this incident...

I wasn't expecting the "Special Branch" follow up as I departed on this train thingy and was asked (?) to step off  "for a quick word" at Clapham Junction. Or the tailing by one of them until I decided to get off at Wallington and jump in a cab.

Home now (obviously), but the home phone is making funny clicky noises....

So by telling us we can all expect to be "followed up" over the next few days then ~ my phone isn't clicking yet.
