spreading dis-information

that is so true. at 12 or 1 ish the superintendent on site - Superintendent Apps came round and told us that his tactic was to bore us out of the carpark occupation and that he was happy with people leaving and coming back for example to go to the toilet - Directly after which he dissappeared and his men violently insisted that we had now been classed an unlawful assembly ( apparently it had come from Chief Superintendent (is that what they're called?) Rickets), that no-one was allowed in and if they saw anyone going to the toilet then they would be arrested for indecent exposure.

this was seconds after he left so either he or his men were lying through their teeth (i find it hard to believe that police communication could really be THAT bad for him not to be told something his men all had been)
