Independent misreports rally

31.03.2009 01:11

In the last paragraph of this report, the Independent says:

"Speaking after the Put People First march in Hyde Park, London, on Saturday, an unidentified member of an anarchy group told a crowd: "We want to see resistance on the street on Wednesday. If the police are ready for you, GO AND fight them. If they're not, give them a surprise."

In actual fact what was said was this:

""And we want resistance on the streets, when I say resistance on the
streets thats exactly what I mean. If we're kicked around we should
fight back. But don't fight the police till you can beat them. When
they're ready for you DON'T fight them. When they're not ready for
you, give them a surprise."
at about 20:33 into the audio

While their version is obviously a bit more salacious, one can only wonder if they deliberately misreported it.

I have just emailed them - lets see if they make a correction......

You just can't trust the corporate media. however 'Independent' it claims to be........

Sounding like a lot of fun! I think we should do this at every demonstration, try and give people some confidence in talking about their ideas, what they are involved in. From small acorns....etc
