BBC following up the rear The UK government's attempt to ban a march in support of bringing troops home from Iraq is scuppered by strength of popular resistance. Gordon Brown looked set to make an ass of himself protesting the suppression of democratic freedom of expression in Burma while at the same time banning a peaceful demonstration in Britain, under threat of police suppression. Under new legislation the British government would have been'legally' entitled to physically restrain protestors, thereby drawing a direct and relevant comparison between scenes in Burma and on the streets of London. But that embarrassment was neatly avoided. The first sign that a volte face had occured was when the BBC started to report that the protestors were 'claiming' that a ban had been imposed! Desperate stuff. See 'Lenin's Tomb' website for ongoing updates on the situation: |

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3She was a terrorist threat; a threat to the terrorists in power. These are the people who by maintaining the system of privilige for the wealthy and denying the population real democracy, enable the ongoing destruction of the environment to continue and the consequent devastation that has on people lives. Oh they terrorise us alright. Should anyone dare to challenge the system in any serious way, they will be locked up.
