[g8-sheffield] Police and protest

[Chris Malins]

Hello all,

There's an academic Dave Waddington at Hallam looking to interview 
people about protest and the police with regard to the G8 in Sheffield. 
I suggested Moses and ACAB might have interesting perspectives, and he's 
trying to get hold of Lesley. His email address is 
d.p.waddington at shu.ac.uk, if anyone thinks they might be able to help 
him out, especially the three mentioned.
