The police are gearing up to expect massive protests at the G20 (Group of Twenty Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors) meetings that are happening on April 1 and 2.

Mainstream media are reporting that police are expecting large numbers of anarchists and environmentalists to turn up to disrupt proceedings in the City of London on April 1, and at the Excel conference centre in London Docklands on April 2.

In addition to the usual suspects, they expect to see old faces from the 1990s, more students than before, and more overseas activists.

After they have hyped it up and given us free publicity, let's not disappoint them!
