It seems to be rapidly attracting attention too. Hopefully it'll make the useless cúnts in parliament think about taking some actual action.
It might actually make them think that the majority opinion in this country isn't on the side of the protesters.
There’s already legislation for this, it would be better to have a petition requiring the police to uphold the law any failures to do so should see senior Police officers charged with misconduct in public office and reparations for damages coming out the Police budget.
Unfortunately, even if enacted, it has to be enforced to work.
We have just witnessed our Police unwilling to enforce existing law, to maintain order.
And therein is a point. The legislation exists but chief constables are abdicating their responsibility to do something about these people. Note that the 'Far Right' football fans are moved on. There's a part of me that asks why; if these guys are happy to take on giving vandals a good shoeing then let them. It's in reality what the police ought to be doing.
The people doing the vandalism, meanwhile, are not only allowed to get on with it, they also turn on the police. The police's policy should not be one of restraint. The police's policy should be one of "Try it on and you'll come off second best".
This is another prime example of where those in senior positions are completely out of touch with public opinion on this; and how a cosmopolitan national broadcaster is abetting the miscreants.
You're assuming the Police grab them in the first place.
Courts can't hammer those not stood in front of them.
Film them and make it clear that “We will be calling on you”.
Progress?
It comes after the Cenotaph in central London was sprayed with graffiti during protests over the weekend.

Why stop at war memorials? Anything of historical relevance should be protected.
There was a referendum amongst locals in Bristol over the Colston statue. The result was that people wanted it to stay but with historical context added on a plaque. So, basically, sod what the (Labour) mayor feels, and the protestors. Local democracy has spoken.
To carry on using the Colston incident as an example, what should have been uppermost in senior officers' minds was defending the democratic choice of the local population, not the right of troublemakers to cause damage for political capital.
