Anger at arrest of 150 student demonstrators
Activer le mode zenKevin Rawlinson
"More than 150 demonstrators were arrested at Tuesday's student protests after they refused to abandon their rally in Trafalgar Square. Officers again used their "kettling" tactic to detain protesters as the initially peaceful demonstration ended in a stand-off between students and police.
"Around 200 people ignored repeated police requests to disperse and officers finally moved to clear the area between 8pm and 9pm.
"Earlier in the day, a police "forward intelligence team" filmed protesters as they marched through London in an attempt to "gather evidence" of wrongdoing. The officers were met with chants of "we are peaceful, what are you?" from the thousands of marchers."
