On one clip the police were slow marching with them, but as we all know, the Met are load of lawless tossers.

well, another example of the Met's ability not to help the public

Reminder of the changes in the 2023 Public Order Act:

Examples of new offences include: 

• 'locking-on' and 'going equipped to lock-on', where an individual attaches themselves to others, objects or buildings to cause serious disruption
• obstructing major works on transport networks and interfering with key pieces of national infrastructure, such as transport and energy

And another example of police, especially the Met, abuse of new legislation.

The first persons to be arrested under these new powers were members of Republic UK who were handing out banners, which had been discussed with the Met police many weeks beforehand.

The first person prosecuted by use of the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000, sold to the public as being intended to combat terrorism & major crime, was a woman who fibbed about her address in order to get her child into a better school.
