Others (including the British Army, MI5, the NCA,many police forces and a number of non-state actors) are fighting what they consider a racist, treasonous movement.

Northumbrian nationalists are holding protests all across the north of England. The largest is in Newcastle, where fifty thousand people have gathered from the Civic Centre down to the Tyne. Alvin Ashleigh, the closest thing the Northumbrian nationalist movement has to a leader, will be making a speech at Grey's Monument shortly. This speech will be broadcast live to all the other protests as well.

I personally support Northumbrian independence however,
At the moment the Congo War is the more pressing matter."

Alvin Ashleigh's helicopter flies overhead, coming in to land in front of the monument. Cones have been laid out to warn those in attendance where the helicopter will be landing. The helicopter lands, its rotors shut down, and Ashleigh steps out waving to the crowd. He begins taking questions from the reporters. Meanwhile at the council estate, the young men provide their papers proving that they are in work.

"I don't care if Khan's playing Congo Bongo or in a conga line, it's all irrelevant to what's happening here in Northumbria. The last time a British government tried these delaying games, look at what happened in India. You're talking about a war but there is no war. We're not at war with Nazi Germany, there's some disturbances going on in some African country. In other news, the sky is blue," he says to the cheers of the crowd. "We want independence and we want it now!" he says to even louder cheers.

"I'd tell them that Northumbria doesn't subscribe to their brand of political correctness that only silences the truth," he says. "And nothing I said was racist by any definition anyway."

He is not dishonourably discharged.
He explains to the police officer what happened.
The barmaid is arrested for false accusations.
"Come on lass." the Constable says after he read her her rights etc.

"What do you mean by 'silences the truth'"?
The reporter asks.

Meanwhile the Scots Guardsman gives the pub a terrible trip-advisor review before moving on to a more respectable establishment.

"But British peacekeepers were threatened. Some Northumbrians were on that peacekeeping mission. What would you say to the supporters of the war?"
OOC: did the barmaid resist arrest?

OOC: did the barmaid resist arrest?

"I would say they need to man up! If someone threatens you, you punch them in the face," he says. As if to prove this point, Ashleigh decks a counter-protester holding an offensive sign. The crowd cheers.

OOC: No, but her supporters are now starting a social media campaign.

Police rush through the crowd, batons drawn.
"Alvin Ashleigh you are under arrest for common assault contrary to common law. You do not have to say anything but it may harm your defence if you fail
to mention when questioned something you later rely on in court.
Anything you do say will be taken down and may be used against you in a court of law.
15 riot police officers are sent in.

The barmaid's supporters all receive warnings in the post.

In the process of rushing through the crowd, the police push over a disabled man in a wheelchair. His head cracks open like an egg on the pavement. The crowd is horrified and some begin shouting at the police.

How do they respond?

The man is already dead. In the confusion, Ashleigh slips away to begin his speech. Tough-looking Northumbrian nationalists stop the police from getting past to him.

OOC: Also, "bar-floozie" is pretty sexist.

The paramedics take the man to hospital.
Meanwhile
"Alvin Ashleigh, give yourself up and no one need be hurt.
And craft brewery, Newcastle
"I would like some mead and a sandwich please".
Says the Scots Guardsman accompanied by two of his brothers in-arms.
One of his brothers in-arms, a Muslim, orders a Diet Pepsi.

OOC: not it fecking isn't!

I have no prejudice against women.

Please google the definition of Floozie.
