"Regarding irresponsible street protests, they went out with the sixties, why burden the police with such nonsense, and who will take responsibility of those elements within who smash windows and deface public property like we witnessed on numerous previous gatherings ?"


The (peaceful) Poll Tax marches got the dreaded Mrs. Thatcher to do away with the Poll Tax, and it was the beginning of the end of her reign.

The 60s are coming back, in case you haven't noticed, but this time, not just in date, but also in age....because it's that generation, MY generation (i'm 55) that's severely pissed off BIGTIME, because we remember better days, in a world that cared, in a time when life was far easier, far less competitive, farfarfar less controlled, far more intelligent, diverse and individual.
