The police used Kettling tactics at the BLM march in London on Wednesday. This is probably what led to the increased tensions between police and protesters at the end of the day.
Do consider preparing for being kettled by bringing additional water/snacks etc!
If you’re being kettled, it’s important to know your rights- so please share this around.
The police have been told not to do the ‘section 50′ thing for years- This is not it’s intended use. You can challenge it at the scene, or take civil action at a later date. If you see/hear the police abusing section 50, start filming. More details here. https://netpol.org/2013/05/03/your-rights-and-section-50-police-reform-act/
Do not give false details under a section 50- this is an offence.
Share this around so that people know their rights!
