    Threaded, you know that it was intentional. I know it was intentional. The majority of posters on this forum know it was intentional. But what about the great unwashed? I can see the NL spin machine churning out a variety of excuses; everything from a simple mistake to earlier 'intelligence reports about potential terrorist action'.

    I do not believe it can actually. These conferences are now so stage managed that every little action and reaction is choreographed. So, no this cannot be explained away as a simple mistake. This was absolutely intended. What the New Lie missed, as usual, was the Law of Unintended Consequences. In this case, if you will have thugs positioned to jump on dissenters, thugish behaviour is going to be seen on the TV. Simple really, it was an incident waiting to happen.

    I've been going on about how dangerous this B'Liar and his gang are for a very long time. It is now becoming obvious even to the sheep, but maybe it is already too late.

    What about the poor sod arrested in Bognor away from the media spotlight and detained without evidence? Who will be there to champion his rights and elicit an apology?

    Freedom of Speech

    Well its a joke that they send people to die for other peoples democratic values and then refuse to acknowledge those of their own citizens

    It was inevitable this would happen.

    See the Orwellian irony of "Protecting our Freedoms".

    Its touchy feely now, but unless the media throw up a huge stink, it appears that any anti-government protest wont be tolerated but "managed"

    How about one of these T shirts to get you locked in a cell and beaten black and blue?

    Furthermore, there have been witness reports of somebody's pensioner dad being stopped in the street in Brighton for wearing a polite but anti-Blair T shirt, by a couple of cops who screached to a halt in their car. It was alleged that the police mumbled anti-terrorist threats and forced the old guy to remove himself from the vacinity of the Conference premises.

    You reap what you sow. If this is how you want Britain to be in the future, then you've only got yourselves to blaim for not standing up to this dictator.

    After being ejected Mr Wolfgang's pass was seized and he was detained under the Terrorism Act when he tried to re-enter the conference on Wednesday.

    Just tell them you have a job, pay taxes and go to church regularly.
