Meanewhile the MET police agreed to meet with people from the Climate Camp group this afternoon at the House of Commons to discuss the protest and policing issues, after the Guardian revealed that the police had ignored previous requests for dialogue ahead of the protests - protests which have been the subject of increasiung hysteria over 'planned violence'.

The police have a long record of abusive policing directed towards Climate Camp events, and a recent parliamentary report condemned both previous actions and tactics used by police against demonstrators, as well as highlighting the innaccurate nature of police statements regarding protestors (some being complete and utter fabrication).
