At least he was tried at Bow Street Magistrates Court,as I"m sure you know.Can't find a record of any supporters\demonstrators being arrested.

Could it be the soldier walking in the gutter who is the subject of this photo?
Is the chap in the bowler hat his brother?
Why are they both smiling?
Is the soldier on his way to be awarded a VC or some other decoration?

Could it be a 1926 photo during The General Strike?Can anyone make out the wording on the poster in the window-is the word "workers" in there?

It dates to 1915-1916 because of the tunics. Also no collar badges - removed during WW1

my first impression had been an actor, what is the size of British codes of law?
