That's right, MTVN. When I worked for MPs there was always a bit of a panic about stuff being sent to them, to their homes, to their families... packets of sand or seeds that could be anything, padded envelopes that could have anything at all in them. And here we are at a dinner in the Mansion House and people are outraged because a protester was manhandled. She didn't look distressed to me, she probably thought it would get her more attention, and it has. She's lucky someone didn't punch her in the face or take her to the ground. I think security must have been having their dinner.
