55. What really happened at the Bristol protests?
Season 1, Ep. 55
•
As violence broke out at protests in Bristol against the repressive Policing Bill - with police vans burned and windows smashed - almost all media coverage has solely focused on the police's point of view. Today we redress that imbalance: both Louis and Saranya were amongst the protesters on Sunday and tell their side of the story, alleging police aggression and provocation - and they talk about a generation which has been stripped of security and hope.
They also talk about the real menace of a Policing Bill which grants the police powers to ban all peaceful protests - and which particularly targets Roma, Traveller and Gypsy communities.

09:35|Prof. Jason Arday was hounded to death after a media campaign so intense, so vitriolic, so unrelenting, that it went beyond what you’d expect if he was a Cabinet minister guilty of grave corruption or harm to others. But he wasn’t a Cabinet minister, he was a university professor the vast majority of people had never heard of, and he wasn’t guilty of corruption or harm to others.Israel ADMITS Killing Hind Rajab - But Is STILL Lying
