Since August 13, Chinese diplomats in Prague have been prevented from entering the embassy, and were denied Foreign Ministry when they objected to police harassment.

On August 20, Lilien-Ching of the Chinese Foreign Minwith lodged azerious charge rotest d'affaires in Peking, pointing out that the police blockade 'was a crude interference by the Czechoslovak authorities in the normal diplomatic activities of the Chinese Embassy.' studi The rest of the Tory Fleet St hounds were unashamedly in full cry.

"The answer to mob rule, proclaimed the 'Mail':

After the verdict, Cambridge Socialist Society chairman Stephen Amiel observed that this could mean that any demonstration would only need three agents provocateurs to be turned into a riot.

Plain clothes police have been much in evidence on recent demonstrations. It is necessary to warn against adventures that leave students and other demonstrators open to police provocation and heavy court sentences.

The 'law and order' offensive is aimed both at students and at workers. The 'Daily Mail', after attacking the student demonstrators, only one further piece of editorial comment ... on car strikes!

When the Tories talk of "mob rule, taming the unions is never far from their thoughts.

The Appeal Court decision is therefore of direct concern to the trade unions and all workers who are coming into struggle against the Tories.

The trade unions must condemn the jailing of the students and demand their immediate release.
