n e 1 know of any police email address we can write to and complain about the two officers numbered above?

I saw these two this morning- I believe they are part of the FIT Team (Foward Intelligence Unit) who have nothing better to do with their lives than follow people & film them in the cause of 'evidence gathering' - although they seemed remarkably shy this morning when being filmed & photographed themselves...
I believe they are based at Scotland Yard - assuming they & their colleagues see this then could they post the relevant contact info here?

That is so good Emily got out of going to jail. What a fantastic result!

Just wanted to say thank you to everyone who has given me support and encourgment. People have been so lovely and I really can't express how much that has meant to me. It has made a huge difference.

Yes, the FIT team were total wankers following us around and trying to stop me drop off my bag etc. However I feel a bit of smug satisfaction that not only did they see me not get sent to jail, but also got to hear the judge be relatively complementary about what I do etc.

I've been asked to post what I said in court, so here it is...

Firstly I have thought very hard about getting representation for this hearing. However I have decided against it. My main regret after my trial was that I didn't give evidence, that I wasn't properly able to express why I had acted. I promised myself that I would treat my mitigation differently and I intend to keep that promise.

The main point that I want to make today is that this was an act of conscience. It's not something I wanted to do, I'd have much rather have stayed in bed. I knew the consequences of what I was doing but I didn't feel as though I had any choice. I had tried other peaceful means of stopping what I believe to be an illegal and immoral arms fair but had been met with government silence and police repression of peaceful protest. All the delegates were arriving by train and I believe it was necessary to non violently attempt to try to stop these deplorable deals from taking place.

The ruling of this court was that my defence was "irrelevant." I have been told on quite a few occasions that a court is not the place for moral arguments. This essentially is the problem with the law. Under current legislation, UK companies have free reign to sell arms to repressive regimes who use them to abuse empoverished populations. This cannot be morally right. It cannot be a good thing to encourage a market in death and suffering. Unfortunately the needs of big business and a government whose promise of an "ethical foreign policy" is a joke, mean that what is right and wrong gets ignored in legislature. I therefore believe that individuals have a responsibility to take direct action in the name of what is right. In recent years, if it weren't for direct action, issues such as nuclear weapons, gm crops, road building schemes, the policies of the IMF and World Bank and the arms trade would have been ignored.

I am aware that I have refused to provide certain information the court. I have refused to state my means because I have no intention of paying any monetry penalty. Doing so would require an admission of guilt and that is not an admission I am willing to make. I have not provided any personal background because there is nothing in my personal life that I wish to disclose or deem relevant to these proceedings.

It was said before adjourning for reports that "something might be able to done to help me." I found this statement both confusing and alarming; I have acted because of deep and long held beliefs. I don't regret what I have done, I don't intend to stop standing up for what I believe to be right. I have no desire to change this and any attempts to change this will hopefully fail.

With regards my previous convictions, they are acts of peaceful political protest. I have not harmed or endangered anyone through my actions and I am proud of the things I have done.

To conclude, this was not a serious criminal act, it was not done for personal gain. I believe all I am guilty of is believing that a better world is possible and of acting upon these beliefs. I should be a testament to those beliefs that I have faced the courts, that I took part in an accountable action knowing that the end result might be the sacrifice of my liberty.
