Police try to intimidate young people out of the anti-war movement.

More than 100 school students held a walkout in Lewisham today. They protested at Lewisham Town Hall.

After the protest more than half of the school students got on a bus to join the protests in the centre of London. The police stopped the bus and began to intimidate the school students demanding their names, their schools and their parents names before starting to drag them into police vans.

As they dragged screaming school students away, the cops proceeded to beat up two members of ISR (including a 15 year old) amongst others.

Multiple arrests were made and the students were piled into police vans and brought back to school. Three people are still being held by the cops.

This is a blatant attempt to intimidats school students and other young people out of the anti-war movement.
