Protests in London

there is no fantasy money tree.

Anti-austerity actually means more borrowing, more debt, wasting ever more on debt interest to pay for things today and then dumping the bill on the next generation.

these are dickhead students and anarchists being led astray by trade unions wounded that their puppet was just rejected. they wont accept the situation, they'll try and cause chaos.

That'll be the BBC whose Chief Political Correspondent was a former President of the Oxford University Conservative Association (Nick Robinson) and World Affairs Editor wrote regularly for the Tory edited Spectator.

Of course the Beeb have a few journalists with a lefty past too which is why they're acknowledged as neutral.

You can do your own Googling this time.

Total scum. You lost, accept it.

And if they find who did it, throw away the key.

Every time there is a legitimate protest in Central London, it receives zero press attention but for the reporting of the obligatory daubing of graffiti on monuments of reverence.

It plays so much into the establishment's hands that it's a wonder they don't have undercover officers with spraypaint infiltrating these marches.

This and people lap up the establishment press feeding out the brain washing .

Incredible we have another 5 years of deepening cuts . How they got voted in is a shock . It must be purely down to the press protecting them and people believing what they read . Can only think the Scottish press is a bit more truthful and they've voted anti austerity .

Good on the protests . Know more than your average joe !

The BBC is shamelessly left wing Bias, they dont even try and hide it much........ there's so many incidences. Stephanie Flanders from the leftie Islington set and former bird of Milliband who's now left, Laura Kunnesbergs father Nicholas was the main funder of Wendy Alexander when she lead Scottish Labour in Holyrood as an MSP, Wendy is the sister of Douglas Alexander just vanquished and Laura as you know is a BBC political commentator, how cosy.

What about handing the job of BBC corporation strategy to James Purnell??, yes thats James Purnell the ex labour minister..... there is so much more if you're interested?

The BBC has to try and not be seen to be Bias but strategy is directed by a died in the wool labour supporter as are many in its news programming.

What utter tosh, sensible people don't take to the streets and paint slogans on war memorials when the civilized majority are remembering VE day, and the sacrifices that many suffered to ensure that we have a democracy where different views are tolerated.

Also it just seems to be the 'in thing' to be anti Tory although they obtained a majority in what is a long established voting system which is understood by all. Violence and civil unrest will not obtain a change.

If the civil unrest does come, no doubt rather than protests we will see those that feel they are entitled to everything on a plate, will be filmed helping themselves to 50" TVs and other expensive electrical and luxury brand goods.

Funny that most people can fully accept the result of the election, even if their party did not gain power. The way to change this is via the ballot box, not violence.

As can be seen locally many people quickly picked up that the Greens were(are) next to useless in everything they do, but waited 4 years to vote them out, rather than deciding to go to the Old Steine demolish the was memorial.

This is probably just the beginning, the inevitable civil unrest which will be exacerbated by the impending Tory cuts.

Both the left and right are feeling an utter failure of democracy right now. 7.5m UKIP, Green and Lib Dem voters all have every right to feel disgruntled - the 9 million Labour voters won't feel much better.

We have an interesting few years ahead of us.

Not particularly but I suppose it gives the Tory voters something to feel righteous about. The memorials they visit once a year and pretend to care while the Tory party tears apart everything the war was ACTUALLY fought for.

I think I've deciphered this shitstorm of bad English. Do you have some kind of problem with me? You seem very pre-occupied with my Saturday afternoon activities. I am quite hard working as it goes, just not on my afternoon off!
I don't like the Tories or the Monarchy and am happy to say so.
I suggest you get your own shit together and don't concern yourself with what people you don't know and have never met get up to on their days off you wally.
