Interesting... they have time to raid activists houses yet no time to protect a mother and her children from people that posted fireworks through her door and burned her house down with her in it?

You can certainly tell where the cops priorities lay, protection of corporate interest comes first and foremost.

FOUR people have been arrested as part of an investigation into animal rights extremists and a spate of criminal damage across Hampshire.

The police swooped after property attacks in Hedge End, Fareham, Winchester and Farnborough.

A 26-year-old man and a 28-year-old woman, both from Gosport, could face conspiracy charges.

A 19-year-old man and a 20-year-old woman from Worcestershire have also been arrested.

Officers are carrying out a fingertip search of their house in Clarence Road and the pair remain in custody.

TWO people have been arrested in Evesham in connection with an investigation into animal rights extremism.

A 19-year-old man from Evesham and a 20-year-old woman from Evesham were arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to commit criminal damage and are currently in custody helping police with their enquiries.

The arrests were made after a warrant was executed at an address in Boat Lane, Evesham, Worcestershire today as part of an ongoing investigation in Hampshire.

Officers are searching the address and the search is expected to continue for some time.

The arrests relate to incidents of criminal damage that occurred in the Winchester, Fareham, Hedge End and Farnborough areas of Hampshire in September and October 2008.

A man and a woman from Gosport were also arrested at an address in Clarence Road, Gosport, Hampshire.

NETCU needs funding for more donuts again...

11.11.2009 14:17

I thought NETCU and their cronies had been quiet for a tad too long, I guess it is about time they tried to make themselves look a bit less useless huh.

Sounds like the usual hysterics from Britain's 'finest', targeting the important problems that are breaking down our society.. knife crime, rape, muggings, domestic violence, child abuse.. oh wait, I meant to say.. protesters! Scrap those previous crimes, they don't affect big business so they don't really count as worthy of police time. Nevermind.

In terms of solidarity demos, I'm pretty sure those locked up would like people to do demos which support the reason for their incarceration - so pick a HLS target and go for it (demo that is! ahem..)
