A year ago today I was violently arrested dragged down stone steps painfully handcuffed roughly handled by a gang of thuggish police who managed knock my glasses to the pavement, expose the top half of my body, all of my bra and not one of them, man or woman did the decent thing to save me being exposed. I’m 75 now. I didn’t shout, struggle or give any sort of abuse or even disrespect the police. I was peacefully holding a piece of paper with words on- nothing more. I was held in a cell until 11.30 and effectively held under house arrest for weeks. I’m charged under the terrorism act. The court dates keep getting changed and we are a real problem. I feel a connection with the thousands of us who have done this - Im proud that we are fighting for our freedom of speech, our right to protest and against genocide. It’s not much but it’s the least we can do.
