6th September, 2025. A day that will live in infamy - the largest number of arrests in a single day in modern British history. Not that you would know that from the miniscule amount of press coverage.
Following the 534 arrests in August, another 857 peaceful protestors were arrested on Parliament Square on terrorism charges for expressing their opposition to the description of non violent direct action protest group Plasticine Action as animated terrorists by Suella Cooper after lobbying from Elbit Systems and the Zionist regime.
Elbit Systems is the Zionist, settler, colonial, apartheid state’s manufacturer of ‘battle tested’ (mostly on Palestinian civilians) weapons. They’re the real world Cyberdyne Systems, the killer robot corporation from the Terminator movies. Some of their 13 UK sites were allegedly targeted in a Private Eye cartoon.
It was a dignified occasion with people of all ages and backgrounds calmly sitting and waiting for their arrest. Some in wheelchairs and on mobility scooters.
A small crowd of angry people spilled into the square after the massive anti-genocide protest that ended in Whitehall and shouted abuse at the police. Police from at least 8 counties piled in with sn**ch squads to make unnecessarily aggressive arrests:
The Met
City Police
West Midlands
Humberside
Cheshire
Thames Valley
Northumbria
Heddlu
As they carted off a succession of old ladies, healthcare workers and a blind man, a fair percentage of the coppers looked like they’d rather be elsewhere, catching criminals or something.
Around 1500 people started the protest but it took so long for the police to gear up their massive operation, nearly half of them had gone home by 21:30 when I left.
The photos don’t do justice to just how massive the police operation was; 2,000 or so cops, hundreds of vans and people taken to cells as far away as Ilford. Bonkers.
