November 5678 (backdated)

With Trigunia/Nadiya's Tsarina still under custody by local authorities, radical left-wing movements have begun calling for "reform" of the Luthorian judicial system, in their view the Judiciary is "inherently unjust", as they were protesting the immunity from prosecution enjoyed by Luthorian officials, in their radical proposals, they've argued for the full dissestablishment of the immunity system, which is especially built to protect elected officials within the Cabinet and the imperial family. Assembled in Empress Katherine Street, the protestors, 24.000 according to the police and 32.000 according to the organisers advanced towards Parliament, where they originally hoped to stop at Parliament Square to place "pressure for fairness" upon the Chamber of Representatives.

According to the Times, these protestors were inspired by the arrest of Tsarina Anastasia of Nadiya as an example to follow, according to them, the imperial family's protection from prosecutions was "unjust and morally wrong" for a democracy to continue having. These weird coalition formed of left-wing radical activists, communists, anarchists, left-wing republicans and other political ideals, formed in direct confrontation with the Tory government of Mr. Brooke, hoping to force a crisis that would precipate the fall of Brooke as Prime Minister.

According to the Home Office, during the protests, numerous individuals begun harassing police forces and destroy property and assaulting numerous individuals that weren't part of the protests. These dangerous acts of violence forced the police to answer in kind, dispersing the crowd assembled in protests to safeguard lives. The protest was dispersed in National Valley Street, with numerous protestors fleeing from the violent confrontations between the police and the terrorists that had infested the once-peaceful march.

According to the Home Office, 2 people were seriously wounded, 1 policeman and another bystander, the two were taken at the Empress Elswith Imperial Hospital and their lives could be in danger. Over 325 arrests were made and another 65 people have been lightly wounded. The Cabinet blamed the "cowardly radical" organisations behind the protests, hinting at potential Communist Party infiltration, the legalist political party quickly refuted the allegations, stating that the Government's "violent crackdown against free speech and freedom of protest" was to blame for the horrendous number of injured. Leader of the Opposition Sir Edward Stanley (Labour) stated that the government today "lost its mandate" to the Luthorian people and called for the resignation of the Prime Minister and the organisation of new elections.

Government partners in the Liberal Party, remained silent, although it is stated that the Liberals are "reconsidering" their position within the Cabinet, although they were stopped from doing so by the intervention of Prime Minister Brooke and Home Secretary Parker-Stanford, who announced an investigation upon the enforcement of the law during the protest.
