Jody McIntyre versus the BBC
hecksinductionhour | December 14, 2010 at 11:50 am | Tags: BBC, December 9 protests, Jody McIntyre, Tories, UK education cuts, UK police state, UK student protests | Categories: film and video, interviews, political repression, protests, student movements | URL: http://wp.me/pbH8F-Mo Watching the BBCâs live, continuous coverage of the December 9 stude nt protests in London against the ruling coalitionâs plan to raise f ees and slash funding, one couldnât help but come away with the impr ession that this august and taxpayer-funded allegedly journalistic o rganization was very much operating on the side of the police. One o f the victims of police abuse that night was Jody McIntyre, a blogge r and activist who suffers from cerebral palsy and is confined to a wheelchair. In this interview, Mr. McIntyre makes short work of the police agent who slipped into the BBC studios disguised as a news pr esenter. By the way, during the events in question, the âviolent pro testersâ slapped a âFuckâ sticker on the manâs overcoat. Here he proves that he very much deserved that moniker.

Thanks to the increasingly essential Leninâs Tomb for the heads-up.
