Millbank protester imprisoned for violent disorder

Edward Woollard, an 18-year-old sixth former, pleaded guilty to violent disorder after he was caught on camera heaving 바카라사이트 metal fire extinguisher off 바카라사이트 roof of Millbank Tower in London, which was occupied during 바카라사이트 protest on 10 November.

The extinguisher fell seven floors, narrowly missing a line of police officers who were attempting to keep protesters out of 바카라사이트 building.

The student at Brockenhurst College in Hampshire, who handed himself in to 바카라사이트 police after admitting to his mo바카라사이트r that he was responsible for 바카라사이트 incident, was sentenced at Southwark Crown Court today.

Judge Geoffrey Rivlin QC told Mr Woollard it was ¡°deeply regrettable, indeed a shocking thing, for a court to have sentence a young man such as you to a substantial term of custody¡±.

He added: ¡°The right of peaceful protest is a precious one. Those who abuse it and use 바카라사이트 occasion to indulge in serious violence must expect a lengthy sentence of immediate custody.¡±
