National Walkout Against Fees 24.11.10

[dennisr]

its a placard on top of the van

 

[creak]

Ah, that would make more sense.

 

[fractionMan]

Nothing from @AaronPorter

No surprise there.

 

[bi0boy]

I'm just waiting for some hack to say "demonstrators were burning wreaths from the cenotaph"

 

[moon23]

Excatly, people STILL fall for this shit.

Someone should have foresaw that happening and placed a couple of warning signs not to touch the van as it's an obvious ploy by the cops to get photos in the press when it was vandalised.

Is there any evidence for this conspiracy theory?

 

[moon23]

He just did that on sky. The extreme left, the swp....

Well the exterme left to advocate the violence and encourage people to direct action to get their own way. You only have to look at the pictures of people wearing masks with black and red flags etc.

I prefer to hope that no demonstrator would be so foolish as to do it.

Warms the cockles, don't it.

yeah, no need for direct action, they should have voted against it instead. Or started a facebook group ideologically objecting to it.

Not all, just a violent group within it. Kid on the BBC saying most of the violent people are anarchists, including someone at least 45.

No it's pure fruitloopery and never tried before in Toronto at the G20 or anything.

 

[creak]

Kid on the BBC also said that there was something iffy about the unoccupied police van left in the middle of the demo.

 

[Fruitloop]

An anatchist at 45! Who'd have thought it.

 

[moon23]

If people decide to smash up a police car, that's their choice.

 

[moon23]

His words, not mine.

Guy on BBC just said the police used the protesters attacking the van as the key event to decide to stop the march and start kettling people.

Conspiracy theories are popular.

Pieces are falling into place though, eh.

Innit.

unlike the libdems and their lies.

 

[eoin_k]

soas occupation have just called for support as there is an eviction attempt now.

 

[krtek a houby]

I'm encouraged by the fact that the protests have largely been peaceful. I'm sure idiotic Gove and other tories (and even the leftoids, come to think of it) would have loved some violence to fume/crow over but no; success.

 

[editor]

Conspiracy theories are popular.

It was careless, clumsy or intentional. Either way it adds up to the same thing: a stick to beat the protesters with and an easy way for the media to ignore the issues.

 

[spliff]

Conspiracy theories are popular.

It's not a conspiracy it's a tried and tested tactic, going back to N30 and probably further.

Oh noes!

 

[butchersapron]

Shades of the police van sacrificed at euston station a decade ago.

 

[Blagsta]

Do you think they'll claim on the insurance?
