The MET police have acted terribly and caused great harm and hurt.
Millions of women are angry and in grief, Sarah Everardβs horrific murder and the millions of acts of assault women face every day are why women created this vigil.
I am an ally. #ReclaimTheseStreets
Riot police creeping around the Clapham Common vigil, police filming people and a police helicopter drowning out chants and claps, the Met is a disgrace
This is what the Sarah Everard vigil looked like before tens of Met Police moved in, disrupted the mourners and proceeded to arrest women off the bandstand. Shameful
Disgusting and completely avoidable. After the court case yesterday, the High Court left the door open for the MET police to engage with the organisers to agree a peaceful, socially distant vigil. They refused and did this instead.
