Student protests in London tomorrow (Weds).

Hi all,
I work in EC1, up Farringdon way and cycle home via Blackfriars bridge now as preferred route.

Heard on grapevine that Blackfriars bridge may be closed later along with waterloo? Not sure how much creedence but just a heads up.

Thank you

I don't have a problem with your actual peaceful coppers, but when over 300 people have died in police custody and not one single officer has faced charges I'm content to presume a lot of old bill are violent thugs protected by their job. I hope it's peaceful tomorrow. Stay safe.

300 ?? Thats horrendous. Over what sort of time span are you talking ? Sounds like a cover up to me.

So is she staying or going?

Staying. There's a civil servant to blame after all, can't have ministers falling on their swords if there's a lackey available.

One Labour MP asked that if Theresa May had expected to be told that the Brodie chap was changing the rules, had she in turn told the PM. Laughter ensued, I mean heaven forbid the PM would want to know we'd turned the border off.

Still there's light at the end of the tunnel. If all ministers now insist that all decisions are run past them, we can get rid of the top layers of the civil service and I'll be in charge!!!

Totes agree, natch!

Sounds like there were twice the number of police deployed as there were protesters.

Good use of public money I say...

Home safe- nothing protest related to report!

I didn't notice anyone "justifying" anything, merely pointing out that violent coppers requently get away with it. Harwood story about being assaulted with thrown bottles would have stood had a witness's footage been found.

and so do "protestors" too. but the dog opn a string brigade think its OK to attack.

ghandi had protest right. non violent
