Stop police violence demo in Redditch

A national demo has been called in Redditch on Sat 18 April

This demo has had very little discussion on here. Is anyone going?

The idea of staging a national anti police violence demo in Jacqui Smith`s home town seems a good idea to me. Large numbers of protesters would have a huge impact and would likely be covered well in the press. Most big demos happen in London, but it doesn`t have to be this way.

Jacqui Smith will be battling to keep her seat in parliament at the next election. The last thing she would want is lots of adverse media coverage from a big anti police violence demo in her constituency!!

Jacqui has Ian Tomlinson`s blood on her hands. And it`s a wonder there were not more deaths or serious injuries when you consider the way most the police were behaving. Let`s take this message to the streets of Redditch!

Saturday 18 April, 12 noon, Redditch Town Hall
