15.20 - Copenhaguen: The disobedient block has just joined the demo against police state in Vegerflev Allé. Some activists are burning an EU flag.
15.10 - Copenhaguen: Thousands of people march along Ingerslevgade St. against Europe police state. There is swedish organisations like AFA and Revolutionary Socialists. The dansk feminist anti-imperialist women group make up a very close and struggling bunch. Many demonstrators are hooded and rebuking the police units with "Fuck tha police". The anti-riots are wearing their helmets and there are many vans in a side of the demo.
14.55 - Copenhaguen: According to several reports to La Haine, there are 3 simultaneous demonstrations going on in Copenhaguen at the moment. There is the Anarchist Block, made of 4000 people. There is also the Disobedient Block, made of 500 people, split from the anarchist block. At last, there is the social-democratic demonstration.
14.30 - Copenhaguen: The demonstration goes along Gaesverk St. A spokesman from Global Roots warns about the peril of being hooded and encourages people to join the block.
14.25 - Copenhaguen: Social-democratic organisations, parlamentary parties and ONG's keep on marching towards Enghave plads, from where they will demonstrate all the way to Rodhuspladsen with the motto "against violence". Soon rumours have been spread within the sotial-democratic demo, criticising the independent attitude from the anarchists and communists demonstrating against police state. An activist from Leftist Youth has reported to LH that "it seems that the anarchists want to force us into their demo, besides they are going to throw bottles at us. Thus we are going to demonstrate against violence".
