On this day, 20 years ago the British state assassinated an innocent man in London.

To quote the late great Shane McGowan 

In England, they'll keep you for seven long days
God help you if ever you're caught on these shores
The coppers need someone and they walk through that door

No, no, 'e's uh,...he's resting.

And the old men still answer to the call
But year after year their numbers get fewer
Some day no one will march there at all.

Terry Reid - Rolling Stone August 5

Famous for having postponed joining Jimmy Page to found Led Zeppelin due to prior commitments and recommended Robert Plant instead. Still had an interesting career.
