EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness a heartfelt moment of gratitude and appreciation towards the London police force. The Commissioner of Police, Sir John Waldron, stands tall and proud as he accepts a memento of signatures from the people of London who were deeply moved by the way the police handled a significant demonstration on Sunday, 27th October in 1968. The image showcases an esteemed gathering at County Hall, where Mr Desmond Plummer, Leader of the GLC (Greater London Council), and Mr Jeffrey Archer can be seen alongside Chief Whip Mr E V Garton. It was Mr Archer who organized thousands of signatures from grateful Londoners to express their thanks to these brave men in uniform. This snapshot captures not only a historical moment but also reflects the unity between law enforcement and citizens during turbulent times. The anti-Vietnam demonstrations had stirred emotions across the city, yet it is evident that through their professionalism and dedication to public safety, these officers managed to earn immense respect from those they served. Dixie Dean's photograph serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos and dissenting voices, there are always individuals who recognize acts of valor and extend their gratitude wholeheartedly. This powerful display of appreciation immortalized in this print symbolizes hope for harmony between communities and those entrusted with maintaining peace within them.
