Police plot May demonstration to disrupt London

BY STEWART "MI5 PART-TIMER" AND DANIEL "I ONLY READ PRESS RELEASES" MCGRORY

EXTREMIST police commanders are plotting to paralyse
London with violent cop riots 48 hours before the expected general election, to remind everybody just who is in charge.

Unintelligible reports suggest that the Metropolitan
police are recruiting support from neighbouring police forces to choke the capital on May 1. They intend their cop riots to spill over to election day. In a rare demonstration of intelligence, police have learned to read public internet discussion lists. There are fears that
police ring leaders are intent on causing more trouble than at last years May Day, when a small band of peaceful gardeners was vastly outnumbered by Stasi-style cop squaddies in full riot gear.

Sir Chief Cop Mason Overlord of the Metropolitan police, said that he was drawing up plans to cancel all police leave over May Day and is considering arming his coppers with semi-automatic machine guns. "We will not tolerate
peaceful protest," he said, "Our boys need a riot. It's wot they are trained for, innit?"

He has been shown unintelligible reports on how police commanders and government ministers want to exploit the timing of their May Day cop riot to embarrass the global movements for social and environmental justice. "We'll
have no justice here," said one bit of paper that could have been written by anybody.

The Metropolitan police are urging violent coppers from neighbouring forces to join in because of the pro-cop publicity that can be expected from the Corporate-controlled media so close to a general election. "If it moves shoot, and shoot to kill" said some other bit of
paper that may or may not have anything to do with May Day.

Police blood lust for a ruddy great ruck is shared by government ministers who like nothing better than seeing people beaten into submission. "What they kill, we will eat" it said somewhere. Every security agency in the
country has been told to concentrate its efforts on
generating a climate of fear and hatred in the run up to the cop riot. "Where's my truncheon?" said a top cop.

Sir Overlord said that if necessary he would borrow mentally-unbalanced officers with a record of violent and dangerous behaviour from neighbouring forces to reinforce his own band of thugs. Last year the police planned to break loads of heads, but they were thwarted by women and children playing and planting seeds in the sunshine. This year he said that the Yard had drawn up contingency plans.

"If anybody's going to damage property or attack people it's going to be us," Sir Overlord said.

The problem with the police and other intelligence services is that they protect the interests of the bosses, the government and other toadies.

The belief is that the cops will be protest at a well-known, symbolic London venue, which will be advertised on the Internet -but the real trouble will come from breakaway groups that will roam the capital shooting at anything
that moves. "We live in a police state, so let's make sure it looks like one," it said.
