As the march approached the City Watch-house John Ellis saw a man taking photographs of the marchers from above the entrance to the watch-house. He was wearing a track suit similar to those off-duty police entering the watch-house below. Since that incident John has photographed many security police, Special Branch and Commonwealth, and still believes that their motives are political and have nothing to do with any breaches of the peace.
