Questions for the MPA

We have submitted the following questions to the Metropolitan Police Authority. We hope to put these to the MPA public meeting at city hall on the 30th April

• Why were the police at the G20 demonstrations not wearing ID or deliberately concleaing ID when catagoric assurances had been made by Silver star commander Broadhurst to MP's that this would not happen?

• Will there be a full independant investigation into allegations of systematic use of excessive force by police against indvidual protestors?

• Will there be a broader independant review into policing strategy at protests in general, in additional to the review of policing at the G20 protests?

• Will the chair of the MPA meet with Defend Peaceful Protest and other groups who were at the G20 protests to ensure that any review of the tactics deployed at the G20 includes the experiences of the protestors themselves?
