There's always on that holds the shield upside down.

Pic. 14 I'd have thought Frankie Boyle would be on the protesters side ?

Some cracking images on that site. Thanks Juddie;-)

Have to say that I'm right with those protesting against the increases. Anyone who demo's against a corrupt, bent, self-interested, self-appointed elite will always get my support - despite most students being lazy, opinionated cunts most of the time.

Shame more sheeple dont wake up and take to the streets like the students have done though, rather than just routinely accepting the shit doled out to them by the government, then dying. What sort of fucking life is that??

BTW, fair play to that big white horse who immediately gave his rider a good fucking shoeing when he got dragged off his back during the protests yesterday. Made my day that did!

I'm ashamed at what happened yesterday. There appear to have been lots of dickheads there just for a fight. The protests are fair enough (although I agree with some of the other posts that we put far too many people through further education when we need apprenticeships and people actually making stuff)

I'm no royalist, but attacking Charles was wrong. Violence, smashing stuff, spray painting and defacing memorials and stuff, chucking paint is wrong. It just costs the country more - Not just for repairs, but in foreign investment and tourism etc. Amazing how this stuff is potrayed overseas. From what I've seen in the past, the foreign media will most likely make it look as if there is violence on every street corner.

It's not just apprenticeships in my opinion, there are a lot of professional qualifications and pathways to get them but the majority of employers only offer these as part of graduate programs.

I'm shocked after seeing that photo of Charles and Camila's car being attacked. I can't believe the royals haven't learnt their lesson - wear your seatbelt!

So all the violence and vandalism is ok then?

I back the police all the way. Any protester that gets a whack deserves it. All these scumbags that are causing all this damage, aren't helping themselves. They are attacking the police, the royals, everything.

I hope hundreds of arrests are made.

Vandalism is fine, as long as it's directed. Violence not so much.

Why does any protester who gets a whack deserve it? There are plenty of people who weren't throwing things, or damaging anything, or attacking anyone, but were caught in the crowd

It would be the majority of people at the front that get a whack. All non-violent intent protestors would be at the back (common sense). The police would be telling them to get back. And then you'd get one or two thinking they are superman etc...

Don't get me wrong, violence isn't the key but at the end of the day the police need to control the thugs.
