That is absolutely ridiculous.

Because someone stood next to people who very very very likely were there to disrupt the event was held by mistake for a period of time and then released? In fascist states, such people don't get their stories shared on twitter!

For months and months Just Stop Oil have been completely disrupting people's livelihoods and day to day lives with numerous consequences.

It's very unfortunate for this lady and she should explore grounds for recourse. But fascism?

There quite literally are people in this country who would have gladly thrown a bomb at this event. Just Stop Oil are not like that, but the police had an incredibly difficult job. It's amazing how many people don't recognise it, jump on any issue and label it fascism.
