In the evening on March 26th police moved into Trafalgar Square to end what looked more like a nice big party than a protest. Some protesters were left behind, some decided to stay and defend their right to be in this public square. Around 300 police kettled less than 50 protesters around Nelson’s Column in what looked more like a show of force than anything to do with law.
One of the crews shooting for our documentary THE REAL SOCIAL NETWORK was there. This is roughly edited video material from the event.
