today an extremely peaceful crowd of protester of different age and nationalities, but mainly students and pensioners , i would say...gathered in parliament square to protest against the new legislation that makes illegal every unauthorized protest within 1 km parameter of parliament square
while the crowd was standing peacefully , police had the opportunity to sneak in and film and photograph all the presents
then they distributed some leaflets about their right to start arresting people under section 132 of the serious and organised crime and police act 2005, but there was no serious trethen and they in fact seem to leave again space and time to the crowd to continue with the speeches peacefully
suddenly, after a quick briefing in the back of the square, in the chill of the shadow, they planned their next step, they got closer and started arrested people
i witnessed only two arrests, but i read on this website about 5 arrests in total
