Letter: The BIG issue - Flaming fiasco.

Byline: T Stephens

THE Olympic torch relay across London on Sunday was marred by skirmishes as thousands protested against China's poor human rights record in Tibet - in all, 35 activists were arrested. Most of you think the police response was too heavy-handed...

THE Olympic torch parade in London on Sunday was an utter fiasco.

The majority of protesters were peaceful yet the police completely over-reacted.

We have the right to freedom of speech in this country - although witnessing the heavy-handed tactics of the police you wouldn't think so.
