Pictures of the No Borders protest at the French Embassy

With banners, leaflets and a loud sound system, they stopped the embassy from doing business for over 1.5 hrs. Then police imposed Section 14 of the Public Order Act and tried to move protesters to a designated area (pen) across the road, which protesters refused to do and, instead, decided to end the demo. One protester, who was 'FIT-watching', was arrested for obstruction of a police officer.

Now again in 2009 the chauvinism of France’s institutional left has reared its ugly head.

This is the biggest lie being told right now

21-07-2009 10:58

The most brilliant propaganda technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly and with unflagging attention.
