countryside riot in london!

[Loki]

Wahay!

 

[Masseuse]

(I'd bet there are proportionally more working class people on this march, and more working class people who go fox hunting, than were at any of the anti-war marches though)

Maybe.

But it is also true there will be significantly higher numbers of people called Arabella who thought it would be like a big outdoor cocktail party with Gin Fizz and a M&S picnic.

They will be jolly unamused if they get tear gas in their blinis!

 

[Kid_Eternity]

anyone who's down there - cops are estimating 8-10,000 people - whaddaya think, is that in any way accurate and what's your estimate of numbers?

I was there two hours ago much as I hate to admit it the cops are right about 8000-10000 people. And yes the shotgun cartridge thing might be true, we heard a loud bang that sounded like a car backfiring. I took about 5/6 pix on my phone but cant upload till later/tomorrow.

 

[cemertyone]

Violence starts and suddenly radio 5's estimates of numbers have gone up from 8-10k to 20k. Police reinforcements are standing by.

Do you know if they have "ordered" snipers onto the tops of buildings to counter-act the threat from the lunitic fringe....where`s lord Toby Harris when you need him...

cheers AI

Ah a truly great song.

It's a song?

Yep, while walking back through whitehall we saw them loading out the bags full of riot gear...

Nah, they won't be on the march. They'll have already retreated to a respectable London club.

I hear some of the protestors have machetes...

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Violent clashes between protesters and police erupted in Parliament Square on Wednesday while MPs were debating a Bill that would impose a ban on hunting with dogs in England and Wales.

The confrontation reportedly came to an end when police reinforcement in riot gear were sent in

Wonder if those two posh girls who body painted themselves last time (and had the Times and Telegraph drooling all over them) have got caught up in it. The reaction of the police to them would be worth seeing.

and syringes full of infested blood

 

[TeeJay]

Gah!

 

[General Ludd]

Got to be at least one samuari sword in there somewhere.

See those bloody foxes get everywhere.

 

[cynical_bastard]

The protestors feel nothing - they're made of string

 

[Loki]

The protest is live on BBC News 24 for anyone who can see it. Many scuffles reported, the police line was breached once and reinforcements called.

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Where are these rumours of syringes and machetes coming from?

 

[General Ludd]

I feel left out now. Anyone got a shotgun and pair of wellies to lend me?

 

[TeeJay]

SKY News have the best live pictures of the "aggro" since they have a helicopter, whereas BBC24 and ITV only have cameras on the ground - and I think they have decided to stay in the slightly quieter part of the crowd after having been squashed and pushed over a few times already.

 

[Streathamite]

oh yes! two rank historical enemies of mine fighting each other! on Camera!

RESULT!!!

 

[DaveCinzano]

gosh that sounds great...post up a pic if you have

want me to email to you?

 

[past caring]

It's a song?

One of the very best.

Whoooahh! Bite! Whoooah! Bite!
Release the bats! Release the bats!
Don't tell me that it doesn't hurt
a hundred fluttering in your skirt
(don't tell me that it doesn't hurt)

My baby is alright
she doesn't mind a bit of dirt
she says "horror vampire bat bite"
she says "horror vampire
How I wish those bats would bite"
Whoooah! Bite

Release the bats! Release the bats!
Pump them up and explode the things
Her legs are chafed by sticky wings
(sticky sticky little things)

My baby is a cool machine
she moves to the pace of her generator,
says damn that sex supreme
she says damn that horror bat
sex vampire, cool machine

Release the bats! Release the bats!
Release them!

Baby is a cool machine
she moves to the pulse of a generator
she says damn that sex supreme
she says, she says damn that horror bat
sex horror sx bat sex horror sex vampire
sex bat horror vampire sex
coll machine
horror bat. Bite!
Cool Machine. Bite!
Sex vampire. Bite!

The met circa 1999-2001

 

[Idris2002]

Has anything like this ever happened before? And what are the implications for the future evolution of society?

 

[General Ludd]

Fucking this and fucking that from a guy being interviewed on the radio now.

It's all good.

 

[butchersapron]

Catasrophe

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

This one looks just like Samantha FOX
