'Ridiculously heavy-handed' Metropolitan Police criticised after raid on Quaker meeting house to arrest protesters

One Quaker was incensed by how the police "flooded" the building - so much so that they pointedly did not offer the officers any cups of tea.

Is this another sinister example of repressing free speech or simply a moronic decision taken by an incompetent police officer? Or both?

Somehow you just know they daren't raid a meeting of young muslims, even if they are planning more efficient methods of slaughtering infidels.

Quite amazing but a sign of the times.

30 officers invading a quaker meeting house, first time ever?

Do they think it's the United States?

It's those bloomin' Far Right Quakers. Great job by Old Bill, coming down hard to nip these sorts of things before they get out of hand. First it's Welcome Meetings, the next thing you know they'll be blowing themselves up, stabbing people or kiddy-fiddling.

oh, Sarge, I think we got the wrong venue,....

Not quite FH, a protest group called Youth Demand, had booked the hall for a meeting & had recently said they would block London in April. They were the ones who put a banner & left loads of shoes on 2TK's home.

Keir must have been Quaking in his boots ?

Well if the Quaker faith is under attack, then we can all depend on a proper Charlie to come in and defend them ? the defender of the Faiths.

as a Druid, i expect equal treatment for Christians and anybody else.

Did the quaker youth group have a dating element to it ? somebody trying to get their Oats ?

YD are the successors to Just Stop Oil. If they are planning the same type of criminal actions then the police are entitled to raid the meeting hall.

The Met were acting on information first received in 1776.

There are also reports of parents disliking their daughters schools on whatsapp requiring police interviews and being held (seriously).

This is Sunak's legislation but I don't see any action from Labour.

It's time that plod were removed from politics and address crime particularly shoplifting, not that they were ever actually much good at that.
