A privatised police force, just for us…?
It’s hard to know for sure, but it seems probable that the officers pictured below at the Smash EDO Shut ITT demo in Brighton were collecting ‘intelligence’ on behalf of the National Public Order Intelligence Unit (NPOIU). The NPOIU work alongside that other lovely bunch, NETCU (National Extremism Tactical Co-ordination Unit) who came to public attention recently by escalating Earth First! and climate campers to the status of terrorists in an article written for the Observer newspaper. The article was later withdrawn by the Observer when it was slammed by their readership as unsubstantiated police propaganda.[Full Story | 2 comments ]

Smash ITT. The middle bit (in pictures).

Only to discover that the Police still had not learned their lesson when it came to turning a peaceful situation into a potentially violent one. More arrests were seen and another pointless kettle was made in between the level and the lanes. Most avoided it and took their buckets and spades to the beach...[Full Story | 3 comments ]

Smash EDO - a fitwatchers perspective
