Police block child agency protesters
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Thousands of protesting fathers found their way blocked by police when they held an illegal march and demonstration against the Child Support Agency in London yesterday. They were twice barred from marching on the Houses of Parliament.
The marchers, numbered at 2,000 by police, had been refused permission from the Department of National Heritage to hold the rally in Trafalgar Square. The demonstration ended in Jubilee Gardens on the South Bank with no arrests.
