I am glad to see some protest somewhere at least, but the destruction of property I am not glad to see. .I know here in the US that trouble makers had been hired by government agents to cause trouble as to give police covering the protest the reasons needed to break up the protest with force and then the media paints a picture to the viewers how violent the so-called radical extremist protesters are .These protest I hope will increase peacefully without any outside trouble makers giving the police no excuse to react as this will no doubt create a negative picture to what the people were protesting about to the world..I dont want to see the puppets acting as leaders targeted as much as I want to see the ones realy calling the shots The ones hiding in the shadows. These cowards have never realy felt that emotion called fear before I wander how thet would react to a million people outside there door step all focused on there crimes there responsible for .. . Everybody must know that these who are trying to keep there corupt ways in tact will do just about anything to keep you in there illusions they created for you to serve there needs in they are truly the real criminals here and anyone supporting them or defending there criminal activities are also just as guilty of these crimes against humanity there is no way they can say they did not know what they were doing was wrong..We also must realize we are on the winning side and the winning side is true and real freedom for all to share,such as we the people all deserve and we will prevail I am just a little impatient to see it lol.

50,000 people of mixed ages turned out today to protest. Whilst i do not condone violence these few that did turn violent are angry and dont know how to express their anger. I have a feeling that there is more to come!

i agree the violence is bad, fortunately no one was seriously injured.
but the government really needs a shakedown and hopefully this is enough for them to do something about it now, to avoid things getting any worse in the future.
But i think its noticeable that people in the uk are on edge at the moment. so many cut backs and redundancies in every area. Not to mention other protests in the rest of Europe!
Gotta hope that the 'new system' comes about very soon, we seem to need it more every day.

Hey Ullan, so nice to "hear" from you! Welcome back!

About the protest... very sad. Violence doesn't achieve anything positive. Never!

[Ullan]

Senseless acts of violence perpetrated against innocent staff and keepers of the peace.

Protests, marches, rallies - yes.
Violence, destruction, assaults - no.

This solved nothing.
