Paul Callanan, Youth Fight for Jobs, says:

"Despite a legally agreed route, liaison and discussion with the police, protesters found themselves kettled and trapped for hours.
"Many of those held were on their first ever protest and just wanted to make the anger they feel about what the government is doing to them known.
"This is a blatant attack on the right to protest and we want to see how the police like it being done to them.
"That's why we are planning to kettle Scotland Yard on 11 December in a peaceful protest in defence of our democratic right to protest".

the energy and militancy of this is great, but if you try and stop a police officer leaving / entering scotland yard, you will be a smear on the pavement before you can say "fuck the police"
