CCTV Mugshots of Student Protest Suspects


As Central London edges closer to normality, the Metropolitan Police Service has released images of fourteen protesters involved in the worst disorder at last Thursday's tuition fees protest.

The fourteen, pictured above, are suspected of violent disorder and criminal damage in the most bad tempered protests on the streets of London for more than a decade.

Det Ch Supt Matthew Horne said: "We want the public to help us identify these people who may have been involved in violent disorder, attacking police officers and smashing buildings, shops and windows."

Buildings targeted included the Treasury and Supreme Court, which had windows smashed and walls grafittied in a frenzy of public defiance. Photos published the following day show protesters desecrating the Cenotaph and urinating on Churchill's statue.

Protesters dispersing from Westminster targeted the Rolls Royce of the Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall, who were en route to the Royal Variety Performance at the London Palladium. Photographers captured the Duchess's terror as the car was daubed with paint and had windows smashed.

Police are urging anyone with information to contact the Operation Malone incident room on 020 8358 0100 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.

I hope that these thugs face the fullest consequences of the law. If it was up to me they would return to their Media Studies courses on Monday to be met by a burly security guard with the message to "f*** off and don't come back". Having demonstrated a complete disregard for the rules of society, they would also forfeit all state handouts for the rest of their pathetic existences.
