We hear from revolutionary communists who were brutally assaulted by Met Police thugs last weekend. Despite the clear opportunity to resist the arrests, the official PSC stewards helped the police do their jobs, and scarpered once things kicked off.

Last Saturday, over 700 RCP members joined the national Palestine demo – the largest communist bloc on Britain’s streets in decades. Our standoff with the police shows a glimpse of what could be achieved if the movement was armed with a revolutionary programme.

Today, 700 revolutionary communists were brutally targeted by the Metropolitan Police on the national pro-Palestine demonstration. Several comrades were kicked, shoved, and slammed to the ground, and eleven comrades were arrested. We will not be intimidated, silenced, or cowed. The future belongs to us, not them!
