Poll Tax riots, London 31 March '90
The death blow for the discredited Thatcher government. More than 100,000 gathered in central London to protest against the tax. After repeated police charges on the crowd riots erupted, shops were looted, police vehicles & government property was attacked, buildings were burned. The total cost ran into hundreds of millions of pounds.

Laurence is three months pregnant here, later Nidge was arrested but this photograph was used in his successful defence. In 1992 Nidge died from an overdose. Laurence had a beautiful daughter, Morwenna, but died in 2016.
