What happened on the streets of Edinburgh. Coporate Media has been blaming Anti-capitalists for disruption in Edinburgh on Monday. But after penning in many people, Police made the mistake of penning in some locals. They reacted, some got arrested and many retaliated.

What happened on the streets of Edinburgh. Coporate Media has been blaming Anti-capitalists for disruption in Edinburgh on Monday. But after penning in many people, Police made the mistake of penning in some locals. They reacted, some got arrested and many retaliated.

Many English police were drafted in and this caused a lot of bad feeling with local residents. And it really shows in this video.

The final shots show the Police retreating and leaving the streets of the city to the local residents.

This Video should be networked to all media that are reporting disturbances as international anti-capitalist movement.
