Holding the Police to Account at DSEi

We watch the watchmen | 06.09.2009 18:20 | Anti-militarism | Repression

After the policing of the Climate Camp, many people are curious about how DSEi will be policed this year.

People taking part in demonstrations, protests and actions around DSEi as well as legal observers are strongly encouraged to email personal accounts of the policing to legalreporting[-at-]hush.com.

We need the time and place of any police abuse, a short description of the events, and crucially the numbers of the police officers involved.

If the police to overstep their powers this will mean that we can hold them to account, whether that be with a complaint, a judical review, media exposure or just more information for Fitwatch.

Don't we expect the police above anyone to act within the law at all times?
Well maybe not. But they dam well should.
They are not the law; they are the servants of the law, as are the courts and the judges and the juries.

...they will go inside the QEII Conference Centre / ExCel and arrest all the arms-dealing murderers / torturers / war criminals. I would sing their praises if they did that.
