HMP Pentonville Prison Solidarity Action
Just after 2pm, a group of about 15 people had gathered and were
immediately detained upon arriving at the prison walls off Caledonian
Road. Two unmarked police vans quickly rolled up and loads of coppers
poured out ordering everyone against the wall.

Just after 2pm, a group of about 15 people had gathered and were
immediately detained upon arriving at the prison walls off Caledonian
Road. Two unmarked police vans quickly rolled up and loads of coppers
poured out ordering everyone against the wall. They then proceeded to
search us (presumably under section 60) and interrogate us. No one had
any weapons (which was a little disappointing because our plan was to
storm the prison, release all the prisoners, and then burn the fucker
to the ground) and despite being told we did not know what we were
talking about and "not to fuck around in london," we demonstrated on
the sidewalk holding signs under the watchful eye of the now 3 police
vans. It was a small action, but the police seized the opportunity to
repress and intimidate anarchists. No legal team members were present
either. We will not be intimidated, we will not back down. We will not
be free until every last prisoner is free.
