User 'anonymous' did: report at Sat Aug 22 00:37:28 +0000 2009.<br/> true true <p>Over the last week across London there has been a series of demonstrations and protests against the policies and programs implemented by the G20 leaders.</p> <p>We are taking to the streets to express our compassion with the family of Ian Tomlinson who tragically died during the 1 April protests at the Bank of England. We are calling for an independent public inquiry into the instances of police violence that occurred though out the week and to establish to true circumstances of his death.</p> <p>We wish to communicate our disgust and anger at the violent and brutal policing of the G20 demonstrations.</p> <p>The press once again created an atmosphere of fear and violence in the lead up to the protests, preemptively justifying the police violence that occurred. They also misreported and lied about the circumstances of the tragedy.&nbsp; We recognise that for many communities the reality of police violence is a daily occurrence. The demonisation of communities, like the demonisation of protesters makes police violence seem normal.</p> <p>As the crisis deepens and continues there will be increased resistance - from factory occupations to demonstrations, strikes and people coming together on the streets. We need to speak out now the right to defend our freedom to protest, our communities and our dignity.</p> 2009-04-03T08:15:32+00:00 2009-04-04T12:00:00+00:00 1027 featured inquest
