Private helicopter and pelt the oiks with quail's eggs ftw.

I might start on my brother and some of my mates. For a laugh like. I am sure they will understand

Quil eggs are far to small, I'll be using bald eagle and great andean condor eggs then finishing with some ostritch eaggs when the others have run out.

Good call. Make sure they've been taken from live nests though!

Komodo Dragon eggs could spice things up a bit.

*Internal Announcement - Information from the City of London Police

We have been informed by the Police that protests linked to the G20 summit will be taking place in London commencing 28th March, with some disruption expected. From the City of London's perspective we are likely to witness most activity on the 01st & 02nd April.
On the 01st protestors intend to hold a 24 hr 'Reclaim the Streets' event in the City, commencing at 11:00 hrs with several gatherings taking place at the tube/train stations of Liverpool Street, London Bridge, Cannon Street and Moorgate. Each group will then make their way to the Bank of England at 12:00 hrs for a street party followed by an overnight vigil in the City with attendees bringing tents to sleep in .
Intelligence also suggests climate related protests and actions at RBS's offices and the European Carbon Exchange in Bishopsgate and also at the ExCel centre.

The Police advise us that they do not anticipate widespread public disorder, however they have recommended a number of precautions and in line with their recommendations staff are advised:
To 'dress down' on the 01st and 02nd;
Avoid or reschedule where possible, unnecessary meetings in the City on both days;
Travel to and from work on public transport;
Co-operate with the Police and building security at all times;
Do not deliberately provoke the demonstrators;
Use caution and remain vigilant when travelling through the City.*

That would be RAD

plus fucking one coconut for this idea. if i didnt have to work I would do it on my own. but not on a brompton

Get in. i got decent suit and tie combo for the day. i'm rolling with the Polo mallet - it's perfect excuse to kick shit into a holier-than-thou lentil knitting trustafarians

If they had half an idea they would organise their lives and compaign in an effective manner. i mean reclaim the fucking streets.. i supposed those crusty twats built them with their hands all those years ago!?

Haha. I was actually looking for a bowler hat today to go with the suit and red braces I've got.

Rolled up suit leg on fixed would be great fun! Gonna have to wear Sidis tho.

Incisive political analysis Paul Michel. I mean Pip. :)

My attempt to derail it failed!

Looks like we have no eco warriers riding fixed.. gutted.. i am back on the car thread to make some sexist comments

I'm guessing you've never been on a protest then?

^ In one

Can't see what the benefit is, frustrating people who have a job to go to and without the power to make the changes. if they leave the place spotless, cause no trouble and pass their message then hats off.

I got the tail end of a protest several years ago and the roads were worse than post notting hill carnival.
Fair play you letting our greater powers know your thoughts on invading Iraq - did the world of good.. no it really did!? hope you feel better about yourself.. now who is paying to clean the town up, police presence and loss of earnings?

My computer's clearly fucked; it seems to have confused LFGSS with the Daily Mail and Have Your Say...
;-(

No way. It's deeply unfair to hit on unemployed people.

Delete cookies, reboot and get back to reading that Everton Fanzone if thats the case (get in his good books) ;)

I am proper moody right now (not forum related) so just venting.. i don't disagree with what they do or in most cases what they stand for. but there are ways to make a change and to do that you have to play the game

am i right in thinking that a few years ago there was a big fight between city boys and the may day lot??

The irony of you lot rolling up to this would be immense.

I agree that's why they are bashing them, because it is much more fairer than trying to romance them.
