      Forgot to mention...

      ...that the woman I mentioned in my previous post on this thread left the client to take up a permie role in an organisation championing business.
      When I pointed this out, she tried to defend it by claiming it wasn't capitalism.

      The majority of these so-called protesters are just immature kids playing politics without understanding how things really work. Most of them have too much free time and not enough responsibility.

      This would never have happened under Wellington!

        Being an open minded chap – like wot I am – I’ve done a bit of research and found out what they want.

        We believe that if our planet is to survive the huge problems we face, the disempowerment of the majority of people, the dire poverty in the global south, climate change - if we are to survive this we need a fundamental change.

        What we'll need to do is to fundamentally reorganise things.

        Our vision is of a society that is run from the bottom up with grassroots control in all areas.
        How this can be achieved by dressing up as clowns and throwing chairs at the police is not explained. You would think it would dawn on them that another pressure group in Edinburgh this week has already achieved much more by simply recruiting pop stars to their cause. If the anti-capitalists had a real desire for change they would do the same thing.

        On the evidence so far, they’re not even very good at throwing chairs at the police
