£2500 in compensation isn’t nearly enough to ensure this doesn’t happen again. It’s practically a license fee for over reach.

From a country that arrests people for burning the Quran & protesting Israel… I seriously doubt they’ve learned anything.

Seems like the politest protest in history. It’s borderline a comedy sketch, although he’s not laughing.

Ironic that his polite human-scale protest wouldn’t have gotten much attention if the police hadn’t turned it into national news.
