Frontline police officers enforcing lockdown rules on protesters are in a “no-win situation”, a federation leader has claimed, amid criticism of the handling of the Sarah Everard vigil.
National vice chairman of the Police Federation of England and Wales Che Donald said officers are “damned if they do take action and damned if they don’t”.
His comments came after the Metropolitan Police was accused of being heavy handed in its treatment of women who gathered in memory of 33-year-old Miss Everard in Clapham on Saturday.
She went missing while walking home in south London on March 3, and her body was found in Kent the following week.
