No Faith in War DSEI Arms Fair protest
ExCeL Centre, London. Tue 5 Sep 2017
and the other pair have one 'Theresa May who would Jesus sanction,
starve and then blow to pieces? #Stop DSEI'
An arrested protester is moved to another police van and others shout
and wave in solidarity
One pair of the dangling protesters holds a banner 'DSEI is state
terrorisim #StopDSEI'
Police spread out across the road to move back those watching so the
special squad can get to work
Police try to move the watchers back but some kneel down and pray
A grim reaper reminds us what war and weapons are about
Banners on the fence around the roundabout
'Peace'
Police decide to work from the bridge and join the rope ladders onto
ropes they can let down
and the first of the protesters is lowered into the waiting arms of
police - with a mat below in case he falls
They lay him down before taking him to the police van
The protest is continuing further up the road
with a religious mass taking place on the road
people are passing around the bread and the wine as I arrive
and then hold hands for the blessing
