difficult to kettle?

are you sure those streets will make it difficult to kettle??
surrounded by buildings on at least two sides makes kettling EASY- the police only have to line up across the road. Open spaces are what makes kettling difficult.
I remember on thrusday people called for the march to start at ULU rather than several different points- they said this would help avoid kettling. In fact ULU would have been a really easy place to kettle.

Everyone who gives a shit about our planet and the thugs that run/destroy it should come to this.
Stop the shoppers! Hit them where it hurts-their profits.
Bring central London to a standstill over and over.
This is only the beginning...

Rise up

This is just like the uprising in France in 1968!

the businesses in and around the area will not take lightly to be completely closed down for the monday afternoon before xmas, which would be the effect of any police kettle.

i'm not saying the police won't kettle, but if they do, the shops will suffer.

a word to all attending though. allow space in the centre, and always push out to the edges, right against the walls, doors and windows of the businesses. don't let lines of cops into the space in front of buildings as they will squeeze and move people to the centre of the road to allow shopping to resume behind them.

guess it ultimately depends how many people come, but if enough, central london will be a raodblock and the police will help that to happen. win-win. bring, food, drink, entertainment and let the police shut down central london even if we're all kettled
