Scotland Yard has been accused of suppressing a peaceful pro-Palestinian protest after the co-head of Greenpeace UK was arrested for pouring biodegradable blood-red dye into a pond outside the US embassy in London. Will McCallum was among five people arrested when the large pond outside the embassy was turned red on Thursday in what Greenpeace said was a protest at the US government’s continued arms sales to Israel. A Metropolitan police spokesperson said: 'Five people have so far been arrested nearby on suspicion of criminal damage and conspiracy to cause criminal damage. The pond is accessible via a public footpath. There was no breach or attempted breach of the secure perimeter of the site.' Greenpeace UK co-head arrested for pouring red dye into US embassy pond
