Wow sounds like the government should help the police out by promising not to invade iran as soon as possible (would be nice to hear someone other than Kier Starmer say it, since a promise from him means NOTHING)

On the plus side - in this instance - many say that large protests such as this will only ever occur in support of the government's position. i.e they have the power to prevent ANY protest from happening before it has finished organising. "Iron Law of oligarchy" et cetera
