Corporate Media Lies, Protesters determination To defeat the logics behind this bloody war and the overall need of Class war in this country.

Scotland Yard said a few hundred demonstrators held ad hoc protests in the West End of London which disrupted traffic.

Deputy Assistant Commissioner Andy Trotter said: "Police officers have come under attack from bottles and stones being thrown at them and have had to change into protective clothing.

"It is disappointing that a small number of demonstrators should spoil the end of what has been otherwise a peaceful day. We will now deal firmly with those people who are determined to continue to cause disruption"

Corporate Media continue with their campaign to mislead the public about what goes on both in Iraq and here in the UK. The above is an extract from an article appeared in a popular liberal sunday paper. Note that no stones or bottles were thrown at the police during the stand off in Oxford Street. The police adopted very heavy handed methods to clear the highway, and as people kept staging sit downs, frustration mounted in the police ranks, whom for no reason at all decided to draw in riot gear pigs to better impress the demonstrators. I was there, we had been peaceful all along, the police shoved, kicked and charged with the clear intention of provoking a violent confrontation.
The police behaviour in defending this bloody conflict, and the criminals in Whitehall that are instigating to kill kill kill inspite of all the opposition indicates to the masses once again that it's Class War that we need in this country.
