Police Raids In London On 28th April 2011

EDM number 1771 in 2010-12, proposed by John McDonnell on 28/04/2011.
Categorised under the topic of Police.

That this House notes with concern that a number of raids of various locations in London were undertaken on 28 April 2011 by the Metropolitan Police in what appears to have been a pre-emptive strike against any potential protestors prior to the Royal wedding the following day; considers that this was a disproportionate response, using large numbers of police officers who would have been better deployed in tackling crime and preventing terrorism; and calls on the Home Secretary and the Metropolitan Police Commissioner to provide a report to the House on the planning, execution and outcome of these raids.

This motion has been signed by a total of 4 MPs.
