That's the future boys and girls. A future that the Establishment has been busy preparing for, whilst the majority of the population were gorging themselves on crap, which they now have to pay for, and the minority of us who saw this coming were being dismissed as mentally unwell
Both Antagonist and Craig Murray are on the case
Craig Murray, in particular, appears to have gone totally berko in recent days and has laid into the Met, the British Government, the Israeli Government, the US Government, the EU, Nato and Tory bloggers. He also also raised the issue of agent provocateurs posing as Muslim and anti Capitalist protesters
I think someone must have upset him .

I don´t see anything new or different in police tactics.The miners had to put up with worse shit 20 years ago.
When push come to shove the establishment would not think twice about smashing your skull with a baton should the need arise.
Northern Ireland has had to put up with a British presence for how many years?
And hundreds of years ago the Highland clearances gave a whole new meaning to "get off my land" don´t fuck with Guv.
In terms of raw police brutality the 70s and early 80s do indeed take some beating
as did many demonstrators, strikers, passers-by and immigrants
There are differences though, mostly of degree and potential - the technology is more capable and one or two archaic laws which offered a modicum of protection and recourse have been kicked into touch
and I bet you at least some of the Plod were *that* pissed off they didn't get a chance to give their shiny new electrocution machines a spin
So, I'm probably jumping the gun a little but I'm expecting big things for the future
Of course, the most effective way to respond to police brutality would be not to meet violence with violence but to find a way of fucking their pensions and overtime rates up
Stef - the pay issue may have helped inflame the police and worsen their morale, making it easier to have them smack around protesters etc.
Government have always had thugs to do their dirty work.
These guys for example

Police tells lies about suspicious death SHOCK HORROR!!
I mean, really, how could they?
"In a stunning conversation with a friend, who is a serving member of the Armed Forces, over the weekend, it was revealed that transfers to regiments and other units in the UK on home duties are being undertaken by the MOD based upon whether an individual was prepared to 'open fire' on UK citizens during civil disturbances."
I´m tellin you nothing has changed
If a police barracks is burned or if the barracks already occupied is not suitable, then the best house in the locality is to be commandeered, the occupants thrown into the gutter. Let them die there—the more the merrier.
Should the order ("Hands Up") not be immediately obeyed, shoot and shoot with effect. If the persons approaching (a patrol) carry their hands in their pockets, or are in any way suspicious-looking, shoot them down. You may make mistakes occasionally and innocent persons may be shot, but that cannot be helped, and you are bound to get the right parties some time. The more you shoot, the better I will like you, and I assure you no policeman will get into trouble for shooting any man.

A comment I just saw in another place...
"Hang on. I"m confused here. I thought the guys in yellow were the hooligans. Weren"t they wearing old chelsea tops, faces covered, and making unprovoked attacks on people. We are now officially policed by hooligans, run by thieves and sadly all to populated by idiots. the last point is the most pertinent."
Some would have it that Northern Ireland was the training ground for what we are beginning to see again in earnest on the mainland of Prison Ship Britain.
Quoting from something I penned a while ago:
By some sheer coincidence of unimaginable proportions, many of the very same old boys who happened to play key roles in running the show in Northern Ireland on behalf of the British government just happen to be in the positions of power to run a similar show on mainland Britain.

Does anyone remember Wacko? Psychologists went to get some insight into the state of mind of the Branch Davidians. The psychologists found that the ATF attackers were the ones who were ill.
Was that an intentional pun on the name "Waco"?
Speaking of which, apparently turretless tanks are used to deploy "tear gas" in the building and "create holes for the kids to escape", while the burning compound was a "mass suicide".
@Anti_NWO - No pun intended.
"No pun intended"
they're the best
Interesting that Craig Murray "raised the issue of agent provocateurs posing as Muslim and anti Capitalist protesters".
I wonder if anyone will raise the issue of agent provocateurs posing as government whistleblowers. Expect Murray to start expressing weird theories on 7/7 and start telling people he's the reincarnation of Robert the Bruce at some point in the next few years.
