This is mob mentality and it's the phenomenon by which people end up behaving in ways they would never normally dream of, they are egged on by people such as those above, let them go on the streets next time instead of keypad chitchat. It's rubbish that a hardcore of troublemakers were responsible for the damage. The support came from the group. And there was considerable support there yesterday, despite the rhetoric about a 'troublemaking minority' which you will hear about over the next few days.

This militant tribe of anarchists whose faces were covered in black scarves actually thought this government should fund their drug and drink fueled uni, years, I think not.

So clearly what impressed one or two on here was their determined walk and their confidence as well as the get-up ignoring that they smash up property, attack and injure policemen and disrupt people's lives.

I've seen a lot of demonstrations in my time and always the police action was very sensible and proportionate, but they need to take the French or Spanish approach to these scum next time.

You can shout all you like about what happened yesterday. Plainly it's not right to smash windows or ruin a building or attack policemen and women. It was dangerous and ultimately it's criminal.
