After falsely claiming their officers had been seriously injured, Bristol police brutally assaulted protesters and journalists during a demonstration against the repressive Policing Bill.

We're joined live by Adam Cantwell-Corn from The Bristol Cable and Ben Smoke from Huck Magazine - both of whom were eyewitnesses - as well as protester Louis, and discuss what this means for Britain's continuing slide into authoritarianism as most of the media parrot false police claims.

We're also joined by Kieran Glasssmith, recently deselected as a Bristol Labour candidate for criticising Keir Starmer.
