> Hundreds of activists clashed with police while smashing windows and vandalising cars outside the EDO MBM Technology plant in Moulsecoomb yesterday in what onlookers described as a "full-blown riot".
> When the march arrived at Home Farm Road onlookers said the previously friendly atmosphere changed.
> A hail of plastic bottles and bricks rained down on about 50 police officers trying to contain the marchers
> Meanwhile protesters kicked police vehicles and hurled red paint at officers.
So the terrorists went there armed with red paint.
> Tom Burchnall, 32, from Newhaven, said: "At times it was absolute anarchy. I've never seen anything on that scale before - it was a full-blown riot."
> "However passionate people are about an issue it does not justify the level of violence that was seen today.
So just in case any of Dougs friends are reading, this is the sort of
thing he supports. Doug is really not a very nice person.
> Earlier this year a screening of a film about the history of the Smash EDO campaign was controversially cancelled after a police officer notified Brighton and Hove City Council that it did not have a licence.
In case you don't believe me, this is the group that Doug was
complaining about the police "censoring" earlier this year.
And Doug, yesterdays actions by you "mates" will have given the police
even more powers to "censor" videos they make.
