Do you really think there was nothing going on between him and the coppers that led up to him being pushed?
Again, I'm not saying he deserved it - I'd just like to know the full story first.

If you read the reports available, he had already been thrwon to the floor and beaten by the OB. (He was not participating in the demo but the OB wouldn't let him leave the area).
At the point that you see the assault by the OB on the video, he had his back to them, his hands in his pockets and was moving away (albeit slowly) from the OB line. At that precise moment there absolutely ZERO justification for the actions of the OB.
The fact the OB then bullshitted about the events shows them to be an even bigger bunch of cunts.

I'm not sure you can judge too much from that clip. It looks like there had been something going on before the start of the film and then it looks like he is (at minimum) trying his best to wind the police up prior to them pushing him. Not saying that whatever he was doing justified the police response, but he wasn't just walking along the street minding his own business either.
I agree... why film an 'innocent bystander' when all mayhem is taking place around you - something must have got the camera mans attention... I remember vividly a photograph in the papers of a copper 'kicking' a guy on the floor in the head during the miners strike - he was suspended and investigated until BBC video footage showed that he was actually pushed from behind by another miner whilst trying to help the guy on the floor - the momentum made it look like he had taken a running kick whereas in reality he had stepped over him... cameras don't lie but they can paint a tainted, one sided view... From experience it's likely that if it can be proved that the push, and only the push, caused the heart attack that killed the guy then the copper is looking at a manslaughter charge...

Many witnesses have come forward who were trying to get to certain roads and were stopped by the police.
I reckon after a day of constant abuse they were losing it.

Bunch of cunts, i hope the Knob who did this loses his job and pension,as well as going down for a stretch. The met have got a shitty reputation for being nothing but thugs in uniform and this does nothing to disprove this theory.
Is it the Met or City of London police? It certainly happened in the City

If he's done something wrong they should arrest him. If he's not they should leave him be.

The reports and witness statements have been all over the press (except the BBC of course).
In fact it's also reported that the BBC new of this video for two days but refused to show it.

In that same footage, after he has the heart attack he is receiving medical attention and the police form a cordon to protect him. At least one person throws a bottle at one of the police officers. Why isn't anyone commenting on that?
Is pushing someone more serious than throwing a bottle at someone's head? Has the person who threw the bottle come forward to face charges of assaulting a police officer? Or any of his mates or other witnesses come forward?
Again, I'm not defending the police who can be real arseholes but it is all extremely one sided. A police man takes one step out of line and everyone comes down hard on them, yet at the same time people can throw objects and abuse at them and that is viewed as being acceptable.

the blokes dead jonny.
i was up in london on the thursday, i was walking from moorgate to london bridge, i was not part of the demonstration, im not a scruffy cunt, didnt look like a protestor.
i got stopped by numerous OB and streets were blocked off, it was a fucking nightmare. The girl i was with got brushed aside by one copper, they were fucking wired and bang out of order.
fuck me i agree with ironside, thats twice now.
