Ah! Thats sorted that then.

I have just read somewhere above that there is a difference between breaking the law and a breach of the law.

Presumably one involves criminals and the other involves people who care?

The "quango" I am involved with recently had a huge restructure in order to balance the books, and some of the redundancies were not voluntary. Having done all that, our CEO was asked by Ministers the other day what our contribution is going to be? No, that's in the past, we need plans to cut from this point...

Ok, it makes my blood boil too. I doubt I will stand in a park in London, but if I didn't have access to decision makers, which I occasionally do, I might feel frustrated enough to let them know how I feel in other ways, and demonstrations may be old hat, but they are noble in their concept.

However, reading in this thread, the hunting thread etc., I do get the feeling many people are more interested in removing the legitimate government rather than asking them to make their decisions based on taking the crowd's view into account.

And that is why I will be in the pub that day. I too have strong values and commitment, but my heartfelt opinion is based on democracy rather than circumventing it. After all, isn't that what people claim to be protesting about? Lack of mandate?
