Talkin Bout a Revolution

[Magda Hassan]

Now who is this guy and where is his seeing eye dog? He is apparently a photographer. And he is singing the praises of the police in their 'handling' of Jodi McIntyre. But his picture do not show the story he is telling. Nor does his statement agree with the other eye witnesses to the police brutality. What is his game I wonder?

Jody McIntyre

A series of shots taken during the afternoon of the latest student protest in London. The young man in the shots, Jody McIntyre claims he was assaulted by the police.
This claim relates to an event later in the evening, however, these shots show the way the police dealt with Mr McIntyre in the afternoon.
At the time these shots were taken the police were under a barrage of bricks, bottles and metal fence panels, as well as being involved in hand to hand fighting with the crowd.
Mr McIntyre was in the front row of the crowd and in a very precarious position, especially as he is wheelchair bound.
It was clear from my vantage point that the police moved him as gently as possible and in doing so the officers put themselves in personal danger from the hail of missiles.
Once he had been moved away from the front line to a safe distance, the officers sat him on a low level wall. Mr McIntyre got up and started arguing with an officer. He was so wound up that he eventually tried to strike an officer and was only stopped from doing this due to the intervention of a famale passer-by.

Apologies for the quality of some of the shots. I too was being shoved around by the crowd.
