Anglesey Council's Heavy Hand

Late last week, some protesters - witnesses say they numbered about 6 - gathered outside to protest about the alleged neglect of horses at an Anglesey farm.

The Council, together with the RSPCA and other agencies, had been involved with attempting to resolve the horses' claimed plight.

Anglesey Council's next security cordon for peaceful protesters?
The six protesters, however, were met with about twenty private security heavies, paid for out of your hard-won taxes.

So there you have it.  Politicians and authorities doing what it has always done in the face of dissent - put up aggressive, disproportionate barriers between it and the people who pay their salaries.
