So, the G20 is in session as I write and there may or may not be an agreement.

Whatever, I am at least glad that hitherto, they are getting on with trying to sort out the problem.

Me? the leveller may be interested to know that I got to my office Ok, tried not to pat the dogs that the security firm had at the entrance, and got on with my day.

Then, went to a pub near Kings Cross with colleagues, as we had things to discuss, (not the G20 funnily enough,) got a train and was home in time for the footy.

What the leveller may not be interested in, was that I didn't manage to kick any beggars, failed to photocopy bank notes to drop at protesters and even when I had the chance in the pub, didn't manage to do a Harry Enfield impression, so didn't go up to people telling them that I notice I am richer than you etc.

Sorry about that.

Oh, and by the way, peaceful protest is a way of reminding decision makers that they are being watched and their actions scrutinised. My point for the rest of the world, (other than our levelling friend, who doesn't count,) is that I like many other people am concerned that anarchists and trouble makers get on the bandwagon of peaceful protest and give it a bad name. I empathise with peaceful protest, even where I don't see the point.

I am actually rather thrilled that somebody has absolutely no respect for me. I should spout my views more often, although perhaps under an alias in future, as our levelling friend is at best passive about direct action, and at worst, well, ha ha ha is what he said about a bank employee having his home attacked.... (Forgot how much fun it is, winding people up!)
