Do you see why people might think there was a bit of a class implication though?
Especially if their 'outlying area' was on fire and the corporate centre of London wasn't?

it does rather contradict the supposed thesis that the police are incapable of pushing somebody.
You seem to have gone rapidly from your preferred option of 'understanding less,' to 'understanding nothing at all'

Oh absolutely. But people who want to see class bias will see it in any situation.
There are plenty of other "wealthy areas" outside the West End that weren't protected. The point is that the West End would almost certainly have been hit had it not been given additional protection, it was possible for the police to afford that protection with limited resources, so they (correctly) did.

Wow!
The police, via the government who represent us.
So when you say "we" you really mean "them"?
If that's the case then don't bother replying... I was only interested in what you thought "we" should do.
The police, believe it or not, don't think with one mind. They are coming from a position where shoving a 'protester' can lead to absolute uproar and this is ONE example as to how their approach can be affected. That was the point.
Who is this 'we'?
And I gave you an answer. So what 'we' are you referring to when you say: 'I was only interested in what you thought 'we' should do.'

That isn't 'a point', thats a bunch of confused thinking strung together to try and get your arse out of the fire you yourself built.
You're understanding less n less with each comment. At this rate you'll be back in the womb before you get to 100 posts!
Okay, before I'm sucking my thumb in awe of your eternal fountain of understanding, tell me the point I was trying to make originally, if that wasn't the point.

fucking awesome but wrong
It wasn't a very good answer.
Look, it's not a difficult question... if you don't want to/can't answer then let's leave it there.
You said 'we need to stop them'
So I asked you who is the 'we' and how would 'we' 'stop them'.
I'm not actually having a go at you, by the way, there are many many many social commentary posts on here... but almost nothing proactive. Nothing useful.
Answer my question... it may be useful.

nobody could be arsed to click on your link tho garfy, cos, well, cos you posted it
Obviously you can't answer it and I'm wasting my time.
Oh, but you told me 'THAT wasn't the point', and now you're teling me you don't know. You, my friend, are a complete prat! Congratulations.
Well, you defined a 'we' of your own in response to my posts and at least I gave you an answer (obviously unsatisfactorily to you), whereas you couldn't answer the very same question you put to me.
My nine year old daughter uses that same tactic.
At least that's mildy funny
past caring
The Cathars were right
So - we already have faux pas and Kizmet here talking to one another. Is there any way of inviting the other eejits (jer, treelover will do for starters) and confining them to this thread?
xes
F.O.A.D
Don't have time, internets down at home, last time I saw this thread yesterday, it had 41 pages. Fuck reading through 30 odd pages of this.

No I didn't, I said you didn't make a point. Which is a very different thing.
It seems my other prediction is rapidly coming right tho, you are understanding less n less each post, even basic English is beyond you now.
