Reply to: Day of Rage

Did these marches actually take place then?

I get confused with these protests at times, what's real and what isn't. I probably watch too many zombie films.

It was 33-34 Celsius so no one wanted to get on tubes, trains and buses to get there then march. 😁

Right. So when someone posts "the BBC didn't report the Day of Rage!!" it was because all the protestors threw a sickie...

I've searched for evidence but all I get back is 'dAy of Rage is planned' 'activists are planning', but nothing about it actually happening.

You have to go to the nation's information center: MFJ protesters clash with police in London | Daily Mail Online

This was actually the main story but seems to have been relegated to somewhere between Kim Largearse and Ant Druggie as the lefties didn't go tulip crazy and pee on some monument

They all gathered at a local crèche and had incredible rages.

I recall back in '99, Reclaim the Streets were have some kind of rally - so I couldn't get off at Bank and walk on the streets to Liverpool Street, I had to take the tube.

How harsh ... not

These guys were the worst. Never did any reclaim the streets.

Ahh the Met promotion program. I fell asleep during the last one.


That's cos the protesters were clearly not middle class enough.


Seems the promotional program is a fail then!

Actually I found it quite interesting the majority of crime depicted was gang, mental health or scrotes on mopeds.

Is it going to take place at Glastonbury as well?

Hopefully it will pour as normal.

This was 15 years ago. Guessing this aspect has changed.

Yep but if you get a recording of the police up to no good make sure you send it to a National Newspaper for your own safety.

That's why you have a good number of people clearly with video cameras at every protest.

The police do the same.

"That's cos you f****** c****, n****** and p**** can't read!"

Well a few of my mates have been told that or similar over the years.

2 shots from the time, no numbers seem to be on show

Years ago the same happened at a Reclaim the Streets in Brighton.

Officers were trucked down by the Met in Vans, no badges in sight.
