In an appalling yet sadly not unexpected decision, Keir Starmer the Director for Public Prosecutions, announced yesterday that no one would face charges over the death of Ian Tomlinson.

Tomlinson, a newspaper vendor, was on his way home on 1st April last year, when he fell foul of what can only be called a gang of police, ostensibly there to ’serve and protect’ the public during the G20 protests, and all too eager to mete out agression to any who crossed their path.

Anonymous for a very long time, PC Simon Harwood was caught on video striking Tomlinson and causing him to fall to the ground. Mr Tomlinson died later.

Harwood, in keeping it seems, with many police that day, had elected not to wear identifying insignia. This in itself made revealing him a very difficult task, and one cant help but wonder whether this wasn’t a large part of the motive for so doing.

He and his cohorts apparently steadfastly said nothing despite whatever limp attempts were going on within the police service to discover the culprit, and even after the video footage had come to light Harwood waited a further three days before coming forward to superiors.

The issue here is not merely one of the unnecessary death of a simple working man, although god knows that’s bad enough. It cuts to the core of our drift into a fascist police state, where despite video evidence and multiple witnesses, this officer it seems will not now even face a trial.

What message does this send to the rest of us? That we can forget about any kind of justice wherever misdeeds by the police are concerned. And perhaps more worryingly, what kind of message does it send to the police? Who will now surely look this as even greater Carte Blanche to dispense their own justice as the whim takes them, without a care that they will ever have to answer for their actions.

Clarity of the issue of the insignia and indeed the standing orders of the officer/s commanding that day are paramount. Who ordered that officers should attend without shoulder flash ID? Who ordered the Kettling? Who was in command?

The only chance we have of getting any of these vitally poignant questions answered is in court, under oath and cross-examination.

Accordingly then we MUST press hard for a volte face from the egregious Mr Starmer and DEMAND that PC Harwood stands trial for Mr Tomlinson’s death. Because otherwise, along with Tomlinson’s demise may well be the death of justice in this country and the birth of the Police State proper.

Justice for Ian Tomlinson: Petition

To:  The Director of Public Prosecutions

On the 1st April 2009 London played host to the G20 summit of the world’s most powerful nations. Regardless of whether or not you support the notion of Globalism, the right to peaceful protest should be entrenched in a lawful, peaceful and fair society, and until recently we had thought this was so in our British Isles.

The demonstrations against the G20 brought together people from all walks of life who simply wanted to show their opposition to the trend towards profit at any costs, riches for the few at the expense of the many. During most of the day those protests were good natured and friendly.
As the day wore on into evening however, the mood changed. The police began donning riot gear, despite little in the way of trouble beyond the suspiciously public few who had openly begun smashing bank windows, seemingly for the sole benefit of the assembled press.
The police then proceeded to ‘kettle’ the remaining protesters, a practice of hemming people in without the means to leave, and without access to water or toilet facilities. It has been said that this is a deliberate means by which to provoke an angry response to which the police can then react, thereby justify the heavy police presence and ‘robust’ policing.

Ian Tomlinson was not part of the demonstration in any way, and was simply making his way home through the area. He was assaulted by a police officer who, in the following days refused to come forward and admit his part, until video evidence emerged giving the lie to his silent denial of involvement. Despite this it was a further three days before the officer finally made himself known to superiors.
It’s interesting to note that he, in common with many of those policing the event, apparently were not wearing identifying insignia that day.
Mr Tomlinson died later that day.

Following his death there have been no less than three separate post mortems. The First, carried out by Home Office Pathologist Dr Freddie Patel, can be said to be unreliable even if only because of concerns that Mr Patel had blemished his own reputation: Following Mr Tomlinson’s death Mr Patel was removed from the Home Office register of accredited forensic pathologists pending an inquiry, amid concern into whether he has breached regulations.
It also emerged that the Metropolitan police alerted the Home Office to concerns about Patel’s performance in four suspicious death cases in 2004.

The second post mortem, carried out soon after the first at the behest of the Independent Police Complaints Commission, concluded that Mr Tomlinson died of internal bleeding, a verdict in keeping with the claim that his death was as a direct consequence of the assault on him.
The third was carried out on the orders of the legal team representing the officer seen in the video assaulting Mr Tomlinson.
Tellingly the results of this Post Mortem have not thus far been made public.

Today, 22nd July 2010, Keir Starmer QC, the Director of Public Prosecutions has announced that no police officer will face any charges in connection with the Death of Ian Tomlinson, as he feels there is, �…no realistic prospect of a conviction.�

Well Mr Starmer that is unacceptable.
In a free, democratic and open society no one should be above the law, and so we the people DEMAND that the officer concerned be brought before a Court
and his guilt or innocence established openly, honestly and lawfully before a jury of his peers.

Sincerely,

Please sign the petition here Justice For Ian Tomlinson Petition and help spread the word far and wide.

Peace
