#CardboardCoffinMan Michael Doherty (here in the pub later, together with Ian Puddick) organised this demo that brought together some 200 protestors with excellent speeches.
But the real surprise was the prompt response by the Chairman of the Home Select Committee Keith Vaz MP, as announced by the BBC:
There will be an investigation, an inquiry into the operation, powers and the future of the IPCC (Independent Police Complaints Commission)
I wish all demos had such “instant gratification” and effective interaction between people, mainstream media and politicians!
Here are other mainstream media reports: Guardian Feature: Justice is impossible if you can not trust the police to tell the truth
RT.COM – Fear of something rotten in Scotland Yard
And here is the Facebook page.
