Hello if you are going to the protest today here are some tips that we used last year to keep ourselves safe during all of our protests.
1. Make sure you are aware of all the legal aid and medical aid at the protest. They will be many today please do not be afraid to talk to them they are extremely helpful.
2. Keep your mask on at all time. One main reason is obviously because we are in a pandemic but the police have several cameras that will be hidden within the crowd.
3. As soon as the police seem aggressive to you, take your camera or phone out and start filming. At multiple of our protests last year the police’s body cams conveniently ran out of batteries so it’s always best that you have evidence
4. If you are alone, make a friend. Stick with that person the whole time it is safer for you.
Protest at 4PM today New Scotland Yard
Save this photos on your phone before you go out today.
5. Please do NOT engage with anyone who is opposing the protest it never ends well please just walk away and ignore them they are usually violent.
Our team has seen multiple riot police vans around london please stay safe today. Be careful share your locations with your friends before you go out today is going to be very risky please everyone stay safe.
6. We decided to add an extra tip due to what has happened in the last few days. Bring goggles with you, the police have started to use pepper spray in protests so be safe
