TOWN HALL MEETING

Angry anti-cuts protesters stormed Lewisham town hall before being beaten back by fully tooled up riot police with horses and dogs.

Around 400 people descended on the town hall after attending a rally called by Lewisham Anti-Cuts Alliance on Monday (29th). As the up-fer-it throng bellowed “LET US IN”, police struggled to hold the line outside the front entrance and eventually about 100 protesters broke through, provoking the brutal police response.
