[DJ Squelch]

Now THATS a candle lit vigil.

Now THATS a candle lit vigil.

 

[TopCat]

Now THATS a candle lit vigil.

Better than fucking glowsticks!

 

[krtek a houby]

Fire, fire, blood an fiyah

 

[BlackArab]

what's burning? we've got no sound at work

 

[chilango]

a big wooden bin?

 

[TopCat]

Reports state only 200 on the glowstick vigil.

 

[belboid]

filled with lots of plasticky crap from the colour of the smoke

 

[ernestolynch]

Hope it burns all night.

 

[TruXta]

Throw yourself in ernesto and it just might.

 

[Lord Camomile]

"What's the point of setting fire to things, what will that do?"
"Um... it's a bit cold"

Random students have been doing a great job on the interviews with Ben Brown. Total solidarity against all cuts, handling questions about violence brilliantly, rightly scoffing at the candle-lit vigil. Excellent work.

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Large fire now in the Square...

and I bet the Square was only just recovering after evicting that peace camp

Now they'll have to start all over

Will nobody think of the tourists

 

[Lord Camomile]

I'm almost certain he was a scab in the last round of strikes.

 

[BlackArab]

a big wooden bin?

full of flammable material? I suppose they couldn't afford to leave out another riot van to play with this time then.

 

[TopCat]

Sky news is shit! Never watched it before. What a croc.

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Maybe they'll use the Fire Brigade as a weapon on the pretext of putting out their fires

 

[TruXta]

We must stand together with all including Stalinists.

Nope, they can fuck right off the wannabe murderous twats.

 

[girasol]

my favourite poster of the day, so far:

a collage/drawing of cameron with scissors around his neck and the caption 'the only cut I'd vote for'

Only 15 minutes to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Lord Camomile]

I'm almost certain he was a scab in the last round of strikes.

Wait, no, wrong bloke. Apologies to Ben

yes brilliant, all of them

That's because the agreed rout basically sent them to a vigil, which basically just took the outcome for granted. But the people decided there was still time to change the final result by making themselves heard loud and clear. There is hope still!
