Quakers condemn arrests of activists at meeting house

The arrests of six female supporters of activist group Youth Demand at a Quaker meeting house have been condemned by the faith group.
Quakers in Britain said the arrests were the first at a meeting house and “an aggressive violation”.
The Metropolitan Police said six people were arrested on Thursday evening at the Westminster Meeting House on suspicion of conspiracy to cause a public nuisance.
The force said it came amid concerns there were plans to “shut down” London during April using tactics such as road blocks.
Youth Demand said more than 30 officers were involved with making the arrests.
