    Worse, though: the protestors burned down the Xmas tree in Trafalgar Square - he one Norway gives us as a thank you.
    I don't think so, it looks to me like it's still there.

      From my understanding they thankfully made a bad job of it, hence the tree remains.

        Like others have posted I'm quite surprised that their protection detail didn't re-route the car so that the encounter was avoided.
        I haven't read this whole thread. But I thought the car took that route as the police with them were using a different radio frequency to the police dealing with the protesters.
        Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

            They failed to set fire to a tree?

            Students.

            Feckin' useless.

            I bet there wasn't a physics or chemistry undergrad there. They'd have burned it down.

            Probably all humanities students. That'll be it.

            Actually, are there any science degree courses left?
