URGENT PRESS RELEASE
Brian Haw and Barbara Tucker both due in court tomorrow 15th June at 10 am Horseferry Road Magistrates Court.
Both have been summonsed on malicious absurd allegations of taking part in an unauthorised demonstration on 26th March 06.
At the time, Brian Haw's demonstration (including Barbara Tucker and any peaceful person!) was exempt from this outrageous SOCPA law.
Brian's summons is being dropped we are told, and a new summons is being issued today alleging he obstructed police from trying to seize (steal) his pretty pink banner stating 'Bliar War Criminal (a Babs Tucker Production)'.
Supporters are welcome outside the court from 9.30am
