David Lammy, MP for Tottenham, condemned as a “disgrace” the riots in his north London constituency on Saturday. However he did add there were still “huge questions” to answer about the fatal shooting by police which led to the peaceful protest. Around 200 people attacked riot officers near Tottenham district police station with petrol bombs and bottles. The riot started on Saturday night in the middle of a peaceful demonstration over the shooting of local resident Mark Duggan. Mr Duggan was shot while in a minicab by officers undertaking a pre-planned operation. One police officer was reportedly shot at but escaped injury when the bullet became lodged in his radio. Protocol demands that any fatal shooting is investigated by the Independent Police Complaints Commission, which has opened an inquiry into the incident. Mr Lammy said: “What happened here on Thursday night raised huge questions and we need answers.” Mr Lammy also raised concerns over the way the violence escalated and the “nature of the policing” that led up to it. “I am concerned that what was a peaceful protest – and of course it is always legitimate to protest peacefully – turned into this,” Adrian Hanstock - Commander, Metropolitan Police: “We believe that certain elements, who were not involved with the vigil, took the opportunity to commit disorder and physically attack police officers, verbally abuse fire brigade personnel and destroy vehicles and buildings,” he added “the peaceful demonstration had been hijacked by a small number of criminal elements who used the event for their own gain”. 26 officers were injured in the violence, two of which are still being treated in hospital. 42 arrests have been made on charges including violent disorder, burglary and theft. Those of us who always try to read between the lines must wonder, if yet again, a peaceful protest has been infiltrated. Not by mindless thugs, but experienced operatives from the shadowy world of the secret governments. We know all to well about the large False Flags these people orchestrate, and it doesn’t take much of a leap of faith to see that screwing with peaceful protests has many gains for them. This may or may not have happened in this case, but one thing is for sure, the police have handled this and the shooting in their usual hack handed way. Mr Lemmy, your government is not all you believe it to be. Related articles
