Defend Democracy Protest 4: Escalation


Parliment Square.

The following have been mentioned there or nearby:

Batons, tear gas, riot police, smoke grenades, fireworks, flares, 30+ police vans, dogs, black vans coming up behind blockade...

I wonder what it's like there.

They'll probably kettle if they haven't all ready. I hate kettling - what will it do except panic people and mae them more violent? Such a horribly bad tactic.

One of us just pointed out the irony of 'democracy' being guarded from the people!
