look again at the photograph

Again people are making the mistake of believing that just cause you know something the world must.

I will say that it was a few years ago I had to have it pointed out to me. I wasn't looking for it. It was more of an aside. I can believe the same happened with this Charlie guy. It is perfectly reasonable to believe that like me this guy was probably in school at on the 11th November every year. Don't insult me because you can't empathise with other people.

If your figures about police injuries are correct. I apologise. I had watched it all night and i don't remember any news of injured policemen. I do remember however that the "rioters" as you call them were a small minority of people. People, who had been forced back into a kettle and then beaten with batons. It all began with the tactics of the police. They put them into a confined area and then used undue force. Some may have been trying to hurt the police. (I don't speak for them) but the police with the gear on were hitting young adults and children who were there for a peaceful protest.



Why do people who are short on intelligence here resort to name calling. I am not thick, by any stretch. I would appreciate if you didn't call me it. It only highlights your weakness to put your point across.



It was a mistake. A huge one. But still a mistake. Unless you want to believe that he intended to desecrate fallen soldiers that day? I don't.



You are right, though. Those that went there to cause trouble (not the students who planned a peaceful protest) should receive punishment. They intended to do harm and there is no excuse.

Can soon put an end to all this.Get the water cannons out.Apparently listening to the radio today they cost 1 million each + the water is very cold which in this weather being soaking wet would feelike your in the Arctic.Not many would hang around then.Only problem would be that the peaceful demonstrators would get wet.Mind you some of these students wouldn't mind a free bath i bet

Radio 2. Everuone has right to voice their opinion. Its called freedom of speech,but when some upper class moron.Causes the outrage he has then he must take responsibility. But he will get a slap on the wrists,do you think if he was a lower class chav.He would get the same.

It all began with the protesters ripping up the metal barriers and trying to ram them into the police at head height,

that was the first flare up. Did you not see this? the police stood their ground and took this abuse for quite a considerable amount of time, when the police did advance they were using shields to push the rioters back, even though some of the protesters were trying to decapitate the police. Seriously jd what would expect the police to do stand there and take it like a punch bag?



As for Charlie boy, his step dads band recorded an album about the loss of life in war and the effect it had on those left behind, I'm sure charlie would of listened to it at some point, I don't believe for one minute he didn't know what he was doing, he was acting the big anarchist in front of his mates swinging on the union flag!



Unfortunately for charlie somebody took his picture, silly little rich boy.

Brutum, out of interest did you support the Police during the Miners' Strike? I would be interested to hear of your comments surrounding the 'The Battle of Orgreave'. Made the student rally look like handbags.



PS: Your user name tickles me. According to a common definition it refers to an empty threat or charge, or a void judgment which is in legal effect no judgment at all. I found that funny. Then again I was a student once before I started paying tax again.

But not on Rememberance Sunday...

What have students ever done for us, like? Glad I'm not paying for any of this.

Orgreave was a disgrace, that is what heavy handed policing is jd, the miners were only trying to protect their livelihoods unfortunately the miners were led by fool that refused to hold a ballot. The police didn't come out of it with any credit but at the same time neither did scargill. Lions led by donkeys



I've been on strike and stood on a picket line, our union membership voted for this, I wouldn't like to of been told that I was going on strike without me having my vote. That is my view hope it doesn't offend.



Glad the name tickles you, it's tickles me.

Hey I'm not offended. I recognise this as a trite messageboard where nothing of note occurs.



However, humour me, such that I can understand your position - is it OK (by you) to physically attack Policemen and Policewomen or not in your view? Whichever view we must recognise it is never Legal.



PS: What happens if the Policeman (Policewoman) used to be a student? Or a miner for that matter.



Complex.

What worries me is the fact that a chap 21 years old has had a supposed top notch education, is a few years into his Cambridge studies. Studying HISTORY, and he doesn't reconize the cenotaph!!
