Photo montage II from Terror Act action
Photo montage II from Terror Act action


After the mornings delivery of parcels containing
genetically modified crops ('time bombs') to government offices, people gathered outside parliament, holding a
press conference, handing out leaflets, parading a
large 'Terrorist' banner through the streets and presenting
Emmeline Pankhurst with a 'terrorist sash' in recognition
that the suffragettes could have been tried for terrorism
under the new laws had they existed then.

NB the police folder with the Reclaim The Streets sticker
tape on (wonder what's in there?)... which, if RTS were
ever to be proscribed under the new terrorism act would
land the copper in serious trouble (as even wearing tee-
shirts with such an organisations name could be a terrorist
crime!)

After the actions outside parlament the protestors moved
off carrying the banner down past Downing street, and were
followed by police to a local pub where the police maintained a guard outside while people relaxed inside.
