James Farrar is facing trial at Southwark Crown Court accused of assaulting two police officers at a trade union demonstration. There allegation relates to sound emanating from a megaphone and no physical contact is alleged. We are hoping to raise £27,000 to defend this case and to protect the rights of future protesters to assemble on the streets without fear of similar prosecution.`James is imminently facing a criminal trial at Southwark Crown Court, accused of assaulting two police officers at an official trade union demonstration at Parliament Square on March 4th, 2019.However, the police do not allege that he physically touched the two police officers or threatened any violence. Instead, he is accused only of using a standard megaphone during the course of the protest which the police officers allege caused them pain and discomfort.To convict, the prosecution must prove he intentionally hurt the police officers or was reckless in his actions which led to injury. He vehemently denies both. If convicted James faces a sentence of up to one year in prison, a fine or both

Two killed in Moss Side yesterday after residents called Police to a raucous party getting out of hand. Given the current levels of animosity to Police it wasnt felt safe to send officers in.
A week after 2 were stabbed and a woman raped at illegal raves in the area. Officers were attacked when they attended to break up the rave.
We're not without bad Policing in the UK, far from it, but we're not the US either. Sections of the public thinking our Police are fair game because of what's happened in the states are ultimately making their own communities less safe.

Thanks for the story Nef.
Markfield recreation ground is the big park next to my old secondary school. You can see the park from the train if you have ever taken the Stansted to Liverpool Street line.
It's on your left about a minute before you pull into Tottenham Hale Station (from Liverpool Street) or on your right if you are leaving Tottenham Hale and going southbound towards Liverpool Street.
