Something bad appears to be brewing at Sheffield's street trees felling sites 2018 as already heavy HiViz security presence as of November 2017 has now been joined by heavy police presence. The immediate effect has been to embolden hired security and Arb's to become more 'aggressive' towards tree protestors which is creating an increasingly charged atmosphere that appears to be building towards an negative event of some kind as the following video illustrates.
Having attended tree protest sites such as at Meersbrook Park Road over a number of days this year, there is definitely a bad atmosphere brewing as the Arb's are increasingly becoming emboldened by the heavy police presence to become abusive towards protestors and bystanders alike such as swearing, threatening, pushing and shuving and even reports of spitting on protestors. The following video from a few days ago illustrates the building charged atmosphere.
