film of yesterday's SOCPA arrest and assault

rikki | 25.07.2006 13:46 | Indymedia | Repression | London

despite an unidentified police officer trying to stop me filming, here is footage of the assault yesterday outside downing street. highlighted once more is the continuing metropolitan police policy of violence against people who's only crime is holding a placard peacefully. an officer also ignore repeated requests to identify herself.

Video mp4 version (use vlc player if you have problems with this file) - video/mp4 5.3M

Video wmv (if you really must support microsoft) - video/x-ms-wmv 5.9M

the background to the evening and other socpa related info can be found in my earlier report at

technical note:
to view the mp4, simply download the self-contained vlc player (which is free and wicked anyway) from

http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ - it's available for virtually every operating system and doesn't invade your system like many other players

that you lot moan about such pathetic things. I thought the police were very restrained when confronted by a load of annoying half wits. Grow up and do something useful.
