And why were the Met Police so heavy-handed at a principally female-attended vigil for a murdered woman, but not at a demonstration like this, clearly constructed for insurrection, which called for the killing of health service workers? Very worrying.
This must have taken some setting up. It didn’t just happen
Who gave them permission to have a stage and who provided the electrical equipment and sound system?
Where were the police?
Lots of answers needed

1 woman is protesting because women are not safe walking home at night in London; the other is calling for health service workers to be killed, not a police officer in sight. Metropolitan Policing under Priti Patel& our ERG Tory government, in pictures.

When I was a school teacher it was up to me how I arranged desks/tables from lesson to lesson. Now even HTs are prevented from making that decision for whole schools? How far down this rabbit hole will we fall before we realise this emperor has no clothes? 😳
Union said the school’s headteacher had been unable to take decision on whether layout of desks in classrooms should change, the implication being that this could only be taken at head office level.

My dad, who served in WWII, told me this story when I was a kid. If you watch this film as the bus turns into Whitehall and passes the Cenotaph at 3.37 you can see how important memorials were for the people of the 1920s.

It’s one of them. The generation who won WWII (my parents& teachers) saw the Welfare State as the final piece in their victory, &joining the EEC as winning the peace. You and your populist mates utterly betrayed them& that will be your historical legacy.
The NHS is NOT the reason most of us are "proud to be British." The NHS was a great idea. It is no longer fit for purpose - as millions of people who cannot get the care they need can attest.
