Don't let the cops trample on you or your rights!

Don't let the cops trample on you or your rights while protesting. Download, print out and share the bust-card attached below. It contains essential info about your rights if arrested or during stop & search.

Why's this important? Even if you've done little or nothing wrong, if you don't know the score you may well find yourself fucked over by the cops. Those who don't know their rights often end up needlessly accepting a caution or a bind over when the cops had no evidence, or incriminating themselves or their mates by engaging with the police in conversation or interview. Don't let this happen...
