WE HAVE POWER: PEOPLE SURROUND AND FORCE RIOT POLICE TO RETREAT IN LONDON

You will see how riot police in London, known as the Metropolitan Police's Territorial Support Group, were surrounded and forced to retreat from a London park. This video features swearing, but you can see that when there are more people than police, the police can be influenced to leave without violence when they are outnumbered. This is, to some degree, a numbers game because when there are enough people unwilling to comply with unreasonable regulations, then there is nothing that the police can do to enforce them.

These officers got to know what fear is. They got to know what it feels like to be isolated and without power. They got to experience having their liberty restricted. These are the very things that they do to people every day when they arrest people for breaches of the corona virus related statutory regulations in the UK. The footage in this video demonstrates that unarmed people can influence the police non-violently.

These officers do not have firearms, they do have 20+ inch plastic batons (that hurt when they are used to hit someone), and CS Spray (somewhat similar to Mace) which causes stinging and burning eyes, nose, and throat. It doesn't appear in this video that either were used.

We the people have power, and can use it peacefully and responsibly.
