CAMPAIGNERS will be policing the police at protests against one of the world’s biggest arms fairs in London this month.
The Defence & Security Equipment International Exhibition (DSEI) takes place at the ExCel Centre in Newham, east London, and will involve 2,800 arms dealers offering their deadly wares to some of the world’s most repressive regimes.
It runs from September 12 to 15, but protests began today targeting firms setting up the exhibition.
