More than two weeks after the G20 summit, it is the protests that continue to make the headlines.

<a class="inlineText" href="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/crime/article6122785.ece"> The Sunday Times carries an image </a> from new edited video footage, which it has been sent, showing clashes between officers and climate protesters.

A senior official at Scotland Yard is quoted as saying that Sir Paul Stephenson, the Metropolitan Police Commissioner, feels "vulnerable".

He is also said to fear that he is facing a "Menezes" moment.

'Servants'

Scotland Yard's tactics at the demonstrations <a class="inlineText" href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2009/apr/19/ipcc-police-g20-protests"> come under further scrutiny in the Observer. </a>

It has an interview with the chairman of the Independent Police Complaints Commission, Nick Hardwick.

He says that police should remember they are "the servants not the masters of the people".

Mr Hardwick also expresses his "serious concerns" about officers at the protests who were disguising their identification numbers.
