Why are @metpoliceuk concerned by an art installation @antepavilion? Under what powers are they arresting employees of an art space with no connection to xr? This is a vast overreach of police powers, and suppression of freedom of expression. #Art #Arrests

After the printworks blockade in sept 2020 the bamboo tension structures were deemed prize winning by architecture critic @PhinHarper saying they "recall the sustainable motives of high-tech architecture" in this @dezeen article:

In 2021 the structures were selected for the @antepavillion 2021 Special Early Summer Commission.. "Our bartizans of tensegrity bamboo towers, or ‘beacons’ as we lovingly call them, were born out of a need to speak truth to power" #Art #TellTheTruth

When a regime starts cracking down on artists, you know we’re in trouble. #FakeDemocracy
Would this be happening if Extinction Rebellion wasn’t holding @pritipatel's friend Rupert Murdoch and the rest of the billionaire owned press to account? #FreeThePress

How many arrests, and how much art has been taken today is yet to be known. This comes hours after police raided an art workshop and took pink wheelbarrows. Please rt… Protest this weekend… Put in a few quid to help us recover from the raids... https://chuffed.org/project/extinction-rebellion-uk-2021 … 5/5pic.twitter.com/0rcf4e9EcM
Bloody hell. I have a pink wheelbarrow, is that against the state now?!! Better hide the musical instruments too!
And don’t get caught with the papier-mâché
Under what power? Ask Priti.
@pritipatel doesn't need powers - she knows this will get thrown out in court but she is just a puppet of Murdoch, doing his bidding.
@LabourSJ this over reach has to be challenged
