Ian Tomlinson died yesterday inside a police cordon, witnesses are calling for information about his death and for an independent public inquiry. He died inside a police cordon. He was supposed to be under the care of the police and the police have a responsibility for the people they cordon in.
We can't accept that people can die inside a police cordon and for us to receive no information about it.
The police have a habit of surrounding protestors and then insisting that they disperse - how? - this was an inevitable consequence.
The official complaints procedure cannot be relied on. That official procedure pronounced the killers of Kevin Gately and Jean Charles de Menezes "not guilty".
