G20 demonstrations

I have a friend who works in he city and makes a fair bit of cash. But the things he wastes his cash on is scandalous. Lobster and £100+ bottles of wine for lunch. The most expensive holidays. Flash cars-

You are talking about Winston here?

The 2003 demos didn't stop the war from happening, but they did catalyse resistance to it and helped people realise that there were a lot of other people out there that felt similarly. I think they certainly shocked the media into realising there were two sides to the story, and without that I suspect that political discourse partic in the US would have carried on in the neocon vein for much longer than it did.

But all the same, the 2003 protests were too chaotic and the messages were too garbled - although at least there was a central point that was easy to absorb.

These G20 demos are even more chaotic and I can't figure out what the message is beyond an inchoate anger that things have gone 'wrong'. Unfortunately, I think we're all to blame for that one - too few questions asked when the going was good.

Even so, they'll generate coverage and the Graunidista's economics editor will have a field day proclaiming the end of capitalism (I don't mean this flippantly - he's a bit like that).

Still, I will duck out of the office when I can with my camera and a couple of rolls of Provia I reckon.

im going to be there i have a job and im still in college but i think this protest does need to be attended and it will probably kick off.

if you are going just make sure you take a quite detailed map of the area and maybe wear something that covers your face because the police will be filming everything and databasing your face id rather not have my face in a police database.

save fred goodwin!!!

i'd rather have you on it...you sound devious.

i have made a sign saying " bikes not bonuses " with london fgss.com on the other side
as well as a small but perfectly formed " bankers are cnuts "

would that go down well ?

any other suggestions for a catchy phrase ?

and it will probably kick off.

You reckon?

If the working and under classes are clogging up London Bridge next week, I'm off to my little bolt hole in Barbados to relax, swim, eat fine food and drink champage...champagne for everyone ...

Hilarious...

he's made the effort to come all the way through the nursery to post that !!

Champagne ...champagne for everyone ....except the working classes...ching ching

If you're a real banker then you're probably oblivious to the fact that your Mrs is rolling over for any geezer that gives her more than 5mins attention

leave him pistinator leave him
he's only trying to wind you up
leave it !

don't get dragged down to his level !
he's prolly joking anyhoo

Keep praying ...oh, and while you are having a pray, could you pray for fine weather in Barbados.

did you see the cricket yesterday
pouring down it was
it's their rainy season i think !

I bet his name's Reuben and he lives just off Kings Rd, wears mustard colour jumbo cords, washed out denim shirt with a salmon cashmere v neck over his shoulders. While his Mrs is at home sucking a 23yr old builders cock!

funny you say that i'm called ruben and i live just of the kings road !

Thought you were from Liverpool? Oh, hang on....

i'm from africa originally
my first team is mbarara united, uganda but when i came to this country liverpool were winning everything in sight so i jumped on the band wagon
officially i should have supported jersey town football club as that is the nearest club to where i was born but hey they're shit so no dice for me, i'm a glory hunter & always will be
almost switched to man utd when they won the champions league in 99 ? but stuck to my guns and battled through !

Guess it's time to bring out my new suit..

You are showing your working class roots! All the upper levels of the socio economic groups in today's society know that the best time of year for fine weather in the Windies is around Easter. Thats why the prices go up this time of year to stop all the hoy poloy from spoiling it
