Four drunken louts wearing bow ties came out of the Parliament main entrance. Two crossed the road and one punched Brian on the side of his face. Barbara crossed the road to complain to the police, who laughed at her. She tried to gain evidence with her phone camera. One of the louts said he would kill her if she took his picture then her phone was dashed from her hand to the ground and broken. The louts also threatened to burn the tents. Had they been anyone else, anywhere else, this would surely have qualified as political intimidation, aka terrorism.
The complaint was made to the police at about 1.30am. Police didn't turn up to deal with it until 7am in the morning. Apparently these assaults on people at the camp happen quite often late at night and nobody seems to care. Volunteers are needed to help defend the camp in the absence of any police protection.
