    If these discussions are crucial what do protestors think they are going to achieve,if they are peaceful protestors then why do some of them dress in black,cover their faces?.There are some who are what i would call serial protestors,they protest but they don't care about what as long as its against the government who pay them their benifits, i've noting against protesting as such but people who refuse to work because of their beliefs have no right to protest!.The world would be a better place if we just got on with our own lifes and stopped being brown collared when it suits us!.

    Sadly I don't think many of the protesters are on benefits, most are middle class thrill seekers who were more than happy for capitalism to provide their parents with the incomes to pay for their expensive educations.

    Next time the news is on listen to their accents. The hypocrisy of these posh yobs is appalling. The banks just fed our 'keeping up with the Beckhams' spending addiction over the last 15 years or so. Shame these people haven't taken to the streets in protest against child abuse, or violence against women instead.

    I work in the middle of a smug anti-capitalist, organic, car hateing ghetto, yet most of them are like that horrible cow in the film The Beech. The 3 tonne 20 year sh**heaps they all drive to festivals in; or protests, are the most polluting vehicles on the road. 

    I've long since shaken of my affluenza need for a fast, sexy car but I'd hate to see such lovely machines destroyed by spoilt brats. Far better they get driven by non-dom tax dodgers, bankers and property tycoons. At least I'll get to see them on the road every once in a while.
