How did the police even know they were there and what they were doing (whatever it was)?
It was a small group, behind closed doors, probably organised on an encrypted chat group (if they had any sense). How could they get the 20 'officers' organised for a raid without some sort of inside info prior.

@davidgrieve @ChrisMayLA6 @Thebratdragon My guess is that they organized on Facebook or some other un-secure social media app that is feeding information directly to the cops. It was apparently a "Welcome talk".

deliberate scare tactics and chilling effect.Taser armed Police into a place of quiet like that is deliberate jackboot.

And for creating a public nuisance..... So the 1000 tractors were not a public nuisance as they were owned by tory and reform donors?

I do a bit protesting myself (anti monarchy), I have never had an issue with the police.

Having said that, our top organisers were all arrested on the morning of the coronation day. Later released without charge and very later given compensation payouts from the MET.

Much like all humans, the police have a range of political views and levels of competence in their ranks.

serving Metropolitan Police Officers gave character witness statements to try and lessen the sentance their warrent carrying, still serving colleague got for raping and murdering Sarah Everard.

That says everything about the Metropolitan Police in my view.

They temporarily detained me at Buckingham Palace after a protest. Let us go after about 40 minutes after they realised we had not broken any law.

I am sure some of them wanted to take us round the back for a kicking mind you.
