3 days agoCanary Wharf anti-migrant protesters accuse Met of 'heavy-handed' policing after shopping centre chaos
The Pink Ladies took part in a peaceful demonstration at Canary Wharf on 31st August 2025. Our purpose was, and always will be, to stand up for justice in a non-violent, compassionate, and respectful way. Unfortunately, during the demonstration, the policing approach was heavy-handed. We wish to clarify reports circulating in the media that a police officer was punched in the face. This is not what happened. In reality, a young policewoman deployed her pepper spray incorrectly and accidentally injured herself in the process.
