Protesting genocide? Believe it or not- jail.

If this happened in any of the non-imperial core countries, we would be hearing about it for the next 20 years.

Since it's in a "free, non-authoritarian democratic^TM^ country", it'll be forgotten in the rapid news cycle within a month.

"Western values"

The majority of the arrests were for supporting a proscribed group under the Terrorism Act, while police said 17 were also arrested for assaults on police officers "after the protest turned violent".

But event organisers said protesters were "peacefully defying the ban" and accused the Met of making "false claims" about violence.

Surely EU cops would never lie to beat up protesters and arrest them
