Dissent from the met

MET | 14.04.2009 16:27

An unknown source has obtained material which suggests there are factions within the Metropolitan Police Force attempting to stage a revolt on May the 1st.



Apparently the following images have been secretly distributed within the MET following the revalations surrounding the death of Ian Tomlinson. It seems certain officers are angry at the way their superiors handled the protest and are attempting to organise direct action on May the 1st.

Whilst the poster calls for a Police 'revolt' on May 1st, the exact details of this action are not known. We can only hope that this material is genuine and that the police really are willing to reject the ultimately oppressive orders of their superiors. It is thought that the material was leaked in an attempt to make other forces aware of the planned action in a way that protects the original officers identity.

Why not help them publicise the demo? Email the image to your local Police Station. If you have a printer why not deliver it in person? Distribute it widely.


Reclaim the streets. People and Environment first.
