Today marks the first anniversary of the death of Ian Tomlinson, who was killed at the G20 protests last year. Mr Tomlinson was walking home from work when he became caught up in the protests. He was pushed over by Police when he had his hands in his pockets and his back to them. Mr Tomlinson later died as a result of internal injuries. The police initially stated he had a heart attack. Since the G20 there have been around 300 complaints made about police brutality. Not one officer has been taken to a disciplinary court and the Tomlinson family still await a police apology.

My heart swelled to see these people making a point to remember an innocent man killed by our police forces corruption and uncivility, it's unbelievable that no one has been prosecuted, even more so that the police havent even bothered to make an apology, ive lost all hope and respect for our police force, and this was before the G20 protests

I welled up a little watching that, and then I got angry.
Where is the justice here? Countless protesters as well as the late Mr Tomlinson were injured during the PEACEFUL G20 protests, and not even an apology has been issued. - 2 years ago
