Constitution

House of Lords debate. 8th Nov 2010

Following a question by Baroness Trumpington of the Conservative party asking: "Is any agency responsible the removal of those occupying the pavement in Parliament Square?" , Home Office Minister Baroness Neville-Jones declares the UK government's intention to bring in new legislation to remove the Parliament Square protesters.

By Louise Almond

14/11/10



I actually feel nauseous having just watched 7 minutes of a House of Lords debate in which peers refer to the protesters of Parliament Square as 'squatters' and 'litter'. How else is one supposed to feel upon watching the tiny elite of British society - an elite which has facilitated two illegal wars in 9 years, and so is therefore an elite populated by war criminals - chortling and guffawing their way through a discussion of how best to proceed in limiting the right of public protest. At the bottom of the screen we are told that we are viewing 'Democracy - Live', a democracy where those discussing are unelected and those being discussed have no formal right of reply.

If the 'noble' Lords had bothered to seek out an informed opinion in order to balance out the debate, I believe many of those involved with the Parliament Square protests would have raised the following points:

1. Access - The 'honourable' peers seem to feel it is their duty to seek to evict the parliament square protesters on account of the perception that the protest prevents public access to a world heritage site. If access is such a concern, why then does the GLA persist in fencing off the square when, by the admission of the peers, all reconstruction work has been completed? Furthermore, why have none of the several bodies responsible for the management of Parliament Square ensured that their is a safe way to access the site? At present one has to brave three lanes of traffic without the aide of a pedestrian crossing - something which is quite obviously a violation of equality laws as it prevents wheelchair users accessing the square.

2. Current legislation - The peers posit that the issue with current legislation is that each authorised protester is allowed up to 20 more people under their permission. At a guess I imagine such a provision was allowed for under SOCPA in order for the legislation to be compatible with Article 11 of the Human Rights Act, and perhaps also to save the police a logistical nightmare when granting permisssions to protest. The peers feel that this provision is leading to a violation of the acceptable boundaries of peaceful protest? Well let me first suggest their are no boundaries to what is an acceptable level of peaceful protest when citizens are trying to stop a government committing war crimes. Let me secondly suggest that having to apply for police authorisation to protest is a violation of human rights, whether or not the European Courts find it acceptable.
In fact, as someone who recently stayed at Parliament Square, I would argue that the issue is not that current legislation is too liberal, but that the authorities are failing to enforce their current legislation. Whilst Peace Strike and Brian Haw's protest have SOCPA authorisation, there are several inhabitants at the square who have no interest in peaceful protest and behave in ways which are detrimental to the 'legitimate' campaigns. Despite an awareness of this, the powers that be have failed to check the authorisation of those camped out, and so are allowing the very squatting that the honourable peers are so appalled by. That said we must be aware that those camped without authorisation, are a representation of some of the most disenfranchised members of society, whose addictions and 'anti-social' behaviours are a direct result of social inequality, so perhaps their very presence outside the institution that upholds inequity is a legitimate protest.
The authorities' lack of enthusiasm for enforcing their own legislation is not new to Parliament Square. If we rewind to the days of Democracy Village, one may remember that it had no authorisation under SOCPA and so could have been cleared by the police at any time. By the polices' own admission, however, they were told to stand down (an order which stretched to allowing acts of extreme violence to occur unchallenged).

So in the summer we saw the State was unwilling to enforce its own draconain legislation for fear of revealing the lie which is Britain's democracy, choosing instead to quash peaceful protest through the high court so that it can be claimed D.V. was given a fair trial.

Knowing this I guess I should have a stronger stomach, and that it should have come as no surprise to see a house of unelected representatives busying themselves with finding new ways to silence the voice of legitimate dissent.

In fact on closer examination it is not a feeling of nausea that I have at watching the clip, it is a fire in my belly - and that fire is one I know is shared by the many people I have met through visiting Parliament Square. It is a fire that will ensure that whatever new legal fictions the dishonourable peers dream up to protect the interests of the international war machine, there will be honourable protesters challenging their every lie and showing that the power of peaceful protest is something that can never be suppressed.

BBC reporter Nick Robinson Trashes Peace Sign on camera

Nick Robinson from the BBC Trashes Peace sign

peacestrike.org
Nick Robinson along with the BBC may think that the people are blind, and that an apology will suffice to sweep the subject of breaking protocol and accountability under the carpet, continued both by the BBC the unelected government.
It's about time the national news started showing the truth of the people instead of procuring their own self obsessed angles. The BBC and other news teams should have been out on the street, talking to the real people, getting the real news. The system is broken and politicians are no longer credible
Where's the truth when the national media keep from view the true voices of the people. The BBC should pay particular attention to this considering the extortionate TV licence fees they demand from the people’s purse. There is also footage showing how employees of the BBC were pushing and body blocking the peace protestor who was holding the sign up

General Peace Strike
Saturday 20th November 2010
Ongoing….
“Bring Our Troops Home”
The war in Afghanistan has entered its 10th year, longer than World War I and World War II combined.
77% of the general public do not support the illegal war and occupation of Afghanistan.
340 service personnel have been killed – twice the number killed in the Iraq war to date, with over 4,000 seriously wounded field hospital admissions,.
Tens of thousands of unarmed innocent Afghan civilians have been killed since 2001, with 2010 the worst year yet. Only the dead have seen the end of war!
Ministry Of Defence Operations Factsheets ref: http://www.mod.uk/
Too many innocent lives in Afghanistan are being lost.
What for?
“Afghanistan Time for Peace.”
To Stop War – The People Must Stop!
“Everyone together will make a difference,
peace has no enemies...”
Please Join:

End the war…… End the war…… End the war…… End the war…… End the war…… End the war

A STOP THE WAR demonstration will take place at speakers corner in Hyde Park from 12 noon, Peacestrike will also be attending the event to network and make a stand for peace.
Please add yourself to the facebook page - peacestrike (parliament square) and also to our mailing list – mail@peacestrike.org for information of a proposed peaceful direct action leading from Hyde Park on that day. Book transport, bring tents, sleeping bags and refreshments, white flags, make banners, placards. Be prepared to stay as long as needed. Help leafleting and campaign with us to mobilise the widest possible support. Online media can also reach millions. Use Facebook, Twitter, your email, website, blog, Please network etc.
“Lets UNITE now for future Peace.”
The people are saying;
“CUT THE WAR, NOT OUR BUDGETS!”
Listen to the people
Why it's time for the troops to come home:
We, the people, have nothing more to lose by taking a stand now for common humanity.
We need UK forces to withdrawn soon; we need to break the NATO coalition. If we don't act now, this could result in an escalation of war into Iran.
So much bravery, loyalty, devotion; so many young lives already destroyed. Unmanned drone planes continue to bomb Pakistan daily, despite the fact that NO declaration of war has been made. This is not reported within mainstream media. The war in Afghanistan is a mess. The insurgency grows, and why wouldn't it: foreign troops have invaded and occupied their country! The people responsible for 9/11 are no longer there. So why are we? Why are we offering up the lives of our sons and daughters every single day, for no reason anyone can define. The October 20th Governments budgets cuts are upon us. These are the severest spending cuts since the 1930s – all in order to fund an illegal war. Prime minister Cameron says our British troops will be in Afghanistan at least another five years at a cost of £5bn a year, while cutting child benefits to save £1bn a year and cutting housing benefit to the poor to save £1.8bn a year. Following the successful withdraw of our service personnel, we, as a country must take responsibility for ongoing humanitarian aid and support to the people of Afghanistan.
Please join this crucial opportunity in London, and other cities across the UK, which will give back a voice to the anti-war majority in this country and tell the politicians the time for peace is... NOW!
More information will be available nearer to the event, please check your e-mails and facebook postings.
