it was so pitiful how a 12 person demonstration could intimadate and scare them into close
when the office door was blockaded so they would not shut was brilliant
they closed the office to undirmine the protest wich was on the other side of the road
to try and get an angry responce to the protest
they failed
the police responce was very interdating to send a firearms officer to the scean
they were not bothers once they got us out of the buliding and then buggerd off
demonstrations will continue to happen
police harrasment or not
TOGETHER WE ARE STRONGER
HOME OFFICE ARE RACISTS
CLOSE DOWN THE ANGLE GROUP
STOP THERE CONTRACT WITH THE HOME OFFICE
RESPECT PEOPLES PRIVICY ANOUNCE YOUR VISITS
VOUCHERS EVRYDAY NOT JUST MONDAYS
