Argentinian embassy occupiers walk free

Anarchist rascals TPK who occupied the argentinian embassy in January see the case against them thrown out of court.

Anarcho-scallies TPK (Those Pesky Kids) entered the Argentinian embassy in London on January 10th. They took down the Argentinian flag, replaced it with the red and black of anarcho-communism and handed out Ferrero Rocher chocolates to the embassy staff before locking and chaining themselves to the embassy balcony, where they remained for about an hour.
This was done in solidarity with and to draw attention to the uprising of the Argentinian people against the policies of the IMF.
Today the charge of 'trespassing on diplomatic premises' was thrown out of court as, after three opportunities, the prosecution had failed to secure the attorney general's consent necessary to proceed with the case.
One of the accused was this morning quoted as saying "it wasn't me, sir, a big boy told me to do it" whilst another was seen eating her bogeys.

They also appeared on today's (march 8th) 'SUN' under heading 'EMBASSY GANG BACK ON STREET'.

As might be expected, the reason for the action was not mentioned, yesterday's court case was merely used to back up their right wing braying.

And the press wonder why anti-capitalists/anarchos are unwilling to talk to them.
