Shame On You - The Movie : Horses charge students in London Parliament Square 09/12/10 dayx3

[TheTaoProduction]

Why don't they use Peper Spray? Or lacrymogena ? so stupid.

[bbean80]

God I hate students .... So hard done by.

[aldoon]

Load of dick eds

[dgia1000]

have you guys even thought about this? you are attacking the people that protect you and keep your beloved ones safe, because you started to destroying stores and shit, and they tried to stop you, you fucking idiots are destroying you own fucking city.. this world is lost..

[salterlee]

@dgia1000 Where on earth did you get that information? This was Parliament Square - there are no shops there. Nothing was attacked or destroyed until the police began to kettle those people (school kids, university students, parents, teachers, lecturers, trade unionsts and so on). Then again, why let facts get in the way of prejudice eh?

[HectorOxify]

It was so good to see the students stroking the horses at the beginning of this film. Clearly they're not anarchist thugs. The police also showed restraint and waved their batons in the air rather then harming anyone. It saddens me that education was brought in by Elizabeth 1st to control the Catholic/Protestant problem that her father created. Now the masses think they have the right to be educated and volunteer to be controlled. We really need some intelligent leadership in this country.

[joeyclairey]

Shame on who exactly? Shame on the disgraceful 'students' and the many other disgusting people that behave in this manner and expect decent taxpaying people to support them. Shame on you throwing objects at police officers and horses. Shame on you smashing up the streets, cars and buildings. I am almost ashamed to be British when I see my fellow countrymen behaving in this way and all for what? I know these words fall on deaf, stupid ears but I pray one day YOU will be ashamed and regret this.

[nrjelley]

lol and what did this protest achieve? Oh thats right, fuck all lol !

[tsangakos]

yes this country has gone straight down the toilet.

[TheCrazybelg]

shame on you noob students thanks to the police people their horses are shops wil not be attacked.

if i was a cop i kick in your balls

[MathewChild]

@TheCrazybelg If you were a Police Officer you'd also be able to write a readable comment.

[grvolans]

poor horses have no clue what's going on.

[TrickWithAKnife]

Do people expect they can destroy public and private property, and then get sympathy too? If you are going to get violent, expect some violence in return. Pussies.

[SomethingMinecraft]

@TrickWithAKnife Totally agree with you man.

[salterlee]

@TrickWithAKnife They didn't begin by destroying public property, they got kettled first. I was there as an observer and watched the whole thing unfold. On what evidence (beside mere prejudice) do you assert that "people" destroyed public property first and then the police responded?

[TrickWithAKnife]

@salterlee These nobile protesters were kettled by shops and other private property?

Because that's what they were trashing.

And I didn't say "people" destroyed the property. It was a pack of whiny self-centred assholes who think the world owes them something.

There is enough video evidence to show what happened, so I don't need to assume anything.

[salterlee]

@TrickWithAKnife I was there. I am a journalist and that day decided to follow the policing of the protest. I have good photographs of the police kitting up before anyone had as much as raised an eyebrow. I catalogued the day step by step. They were not kettled by shops. I was there. They were kettled in Parliament square before anything had happened.

[TrickWithAKnife]

@salterlee Then as a journalist who was there right from the start, and saw everything, I'm sure you have loads of evidence. Feel free to link it and prove everyone wrong.

[salterlee]

@TrickWithAKnife Yes I do. I only have the photos on Facebook at the moment, and they are private but I may put them onto a Flickr account. I've been meaning to do so for ages, so I'll let you know when I do.

[shanshanrere]

What fools, the officers had done their job well. The stupidity and volience those ignorant fools showed just to get their point across was just unexactable.

[kijenburu]

@shanshanrere and what do you do? hide in your hole

keep in mind that this protest started out as a peaceful one and the majority of the demostrators are peaceful. Its because of the police brutality which cause people to react violently. You wouldnt know anything about resistance because you are a slave to the bullshit information the media feeds you ass. wake up

[MarkB1ngham]

Why were they being denied their democratic right to march and peacefully protest? Police tactics provoked the whole thing...AND the dulicitous DimLebs hawkphttt!

[jacksawild]

It shows the state of our education system that these students have never heard of CALTROPS or MARBLES.

[BigDuke6ixx]

Well done police, you did a great job in very difficult circumstances.

[kijenburu]

@BigDuke6ixx  the police are sellouts, protecting those corporate criminals and politicians

[tweeniemischief]

I don't understand why police presence is so "outrageous". If you go to a riot, EXPECT this to happen. They're doing their jobs, and there's better (and more efficient/safe) ways to get ones point across.

[TheLahness]

You are all idiots, its because of you our country is failing, all you idiots who think you deserve a welfare state, its because of that league of thinking that we are in so much debt. In the USA they pay loads for health care, they pay 30-40k a year on UNI, so 9k isn't that bad, you ungrateful bastards.

[kijenburu]

@TheLahness and that doesnt have anything to do with the government bailing out banks constantly, overspending in military activities; invading other parts of the world: And giving away billions of dollars to corporate criminals and corrupted politicians? If you think that all your tax money pays for health care and welfare then you need to look at CANADA- their healthcare system and how well they are progressing. Those student are the brave new world, you ungrateful republican bastard.

[TheLahness]

@kijenburu Yes it is also the governments fault, but rioting over 9k fee's when people in America have to pay 30-40k, and the Chinese who come to Britain to go to UNI dont pay 9k, they pay 27k. So why are these ungrateful idiots rioting over 9k, it would not take that long to pay off a 9k loan. Fucking idiots.

[Chief122]

Police should have applied lethal force tactics against this lot

[Tr1nityrecords]

Hahaha faggot students, I'm glad your fees got cut. You bunch of cunts don't deserve an education if this is how you behave. Clearly your parents have all failed you.

I wish more police officers caved your faces in you hipster fags.

[kijenburu]

@Tr1nityrecords what did you say? sorry what was that? come again please... Sorry i couldnt hear you with all that government dicks in your mouth

[wedgeandbiggs]

You call this police opression, you need to grow up boys and girls. This is restraint with the use of minimum force.

Go to Greece, France or Italy and see how well the police would treat you as a protester. You lot really do not know how good you got it.

[DannyBoii]

The police were just getting them to move back yet they tried again and again to break police lines. I suggest rubber bullets and tear gas maybe them so fucking respect.

[Zapinc9]

Horses charge? More like horse gently walk forward, its not exactly a frontline battle lol

[salterlee]

@Zapinc9 Try reading a policing manual. A horse charge/cavalry charge is recommended only as an absolute last resort due to the psychological trauma it causes to victims. And police tactics on using that last resort usually refer to adults, not children. Besides, this video doesn't really capture the main charge.

[Zapinc9]

@salterlee >Implying you know anything about Policing

[salterlee]

@Zapinc9 Well yes, I might just have studied it a little bit. Perhaps you shouldn't be so presumptuous. Some people try to find things out before they make general comments.

[Zapinc9]

@salterlee >Implying that skimming a Wikipedia article counts as 'study'

[salterlee]

@Zapinc9 Actually I am a journalist and journalism lecturer. And I was there, so I think I might be somewhat qualified to comment. I have also written on policing protest, so again, have a bit of knowledge on that. Perhaps you should read Waddington's works on policing.

[Zapinc9]

@salterlee Telling your little brother about the knowyourmeme article you wrote does not count as journalism, maybe you should stop fantasising about being somebody important and get on with your life

[salterlee]

@Zapinc9 Actually I'm head of a university journalism programme.

[FoxpawsSilvertongue]

As peaceful protest evidently doesnt work, atleast some people were brave enough to try the other method. Nice one guys, wish I could of been there.

[stonehengealdo]

@MegaChasse you are more stupid than i even imagined. of course violence works, it is the only thing that works, which is why our government is so keen to use it on its own peoples and peoples of other countries. you dumb arse

[1who2what3where4when]

Not moving when told, abusing the police, throwing things at them and you expect them to be nice ? I was gutted none of these morons got trampled.

[Pigdowndog]

Just a shame the police were so restrained.

[lambyjr]

Why chant shame on you at the men and women who are trying to do their jobs. Trying to keep law and order. Those officers were risking their lives there, as if one had been dragged into the ground God only knows what would have happened to them. Anyone with half a brain cell who actually watches this video can tell that the police had every right to use the force they did, as the opposing force was worse, and if they hadn't been wearing protective clothing they would have been seriously injured.

[lambyjr]

I'm guessing before this violence, the crowd was asked to leave. Then when the majority ignored this you were to told to leave. You can't call the police thugs, especially when you are shouting abuse, throwing sticks and stones and attacking the police with sticks. The metal fence wasn't being passed over as a barrier, as there was no need for a barrier, you just had to go home. As soon as that barrier got to the front it would have been used as a weapon.

[binpaper11]

... Most of those cops look SOOO embarrassed......!!!!

[minnimerc]

@MegaChasse What on Earth are you talking about..... and why have you got no profile, are you an antagonist my friend? I at no point have been against the police, my Question was why are the met police not wearing MeT badges, and Keep Loyal animals out of Hooligan Violence, now return your head to that special place.

[minnimerc]

@zephranna01 You don't have Friends, people pay you to suck them off. (and not very much)

your friend's in power, do they sell electricity?

also do your friends in the forces, Do they enjoy your racism and lame threats?

[minnimerc]

@zephranna01 Are you threatening me and my family, over the internet. THE SECURITY FORCES MAY BREAK YOUR WEE SCULL. (you aint very clever)

[minnimerc]

@zephranna01 I bow to your wisdom fuckwit........ What on Earth would I want to be in London protesting for. you do exactly what you want with the shithole, I'll stay in My country watching you fannies fighting and if You come anywhere near my Home i will stick your baton up your arse and then your thick skull up your horse's arse and feed both off you to the fish. hahahahahahaha........

[minnimerc]

@zephranna01 Becoming.....?

also, those cute looking horses would stamp you into mush.....

[thedoorsman12345]

england is fucked.

[DuckingBonkers]

i think the bottom line is a peaceful protest would have gone unnoticed, with this reactions the MPs have been able to see peoples reactions which they can hardly ignore... i hate to think what will actually happen when they raise the fees in 2012.

i do think some individuals took it too far but the police didn't help the situation...

[MaxKrane]

I like how the mentality behind the decision to use the mounted police seemed to be 'well we've got 'em might as well use 'em'.

[boombagod]

GET THOSE ANIMALS OFF THOSE HORSES!

GET THOSE ANIMALS OFF THOSE HORSES!

GET THOSE ANIMALS OFF THOSE HORSES!

peace and love to all

[maria3626352]

NAZIS

[John1Rawls]

Many police are just good people who want to protect the innocent. However those here, grinning as they're hitting unarmed individuals, are just fucking aggressive thugs who are too cowardly to join the army but nonetheless want to cause pain to people. They're far too stupid to realise that their jobs are going to be next.

[olrepas]

@hail55storm Cowards?  Would you address them? They are not there to listen to arguments, they are there to riot for the fun of it. Are you a bit thick or summin?

[olrepas]

These students are all cunts and deserve nothing.

Think about the actual poor in Africa and compare the two groups

[choongification]

terminator police n shit

[ben255041185]

u stupid twats! revolutiion?? coz they want u to pay to go to uni??? im serving in germany and goin bk to afghan in august, why should i pay for you to go to university?? answer me that.....! you havent experienced life, your 15 years old, been handed everything on a plate no dout! those police officers r normal guys, your next door neighbour! thats there job and your talking like they r the enemy, for what??? you posh little nobs fuck me right off! i dont owe u an education!!

[007RoyalFlush]

@ben255041185 Well said! @doilikeyou You are the scum of the earth who has been brought up without discipline or respect. I hope one day you learn what respect is, for your own sake if no-one else's. You, like a lot of the rest of the mindless population believe whatever the media tell you to believe. The police are out there doing a good job, and the only reason you say otherwise is because you expect the unachievable from them and have unjustified blind hatred for them. You are a sheep.

[007RoyalFlush]

Shame on you indeed. The students at these protests should all be ashamed of themselves. The police are all heroes just doing their jobs for the good of the country. I hope none of them got hurt.

[doilikeyou06]

@007RoyalFlush i hope they all fucking die, all police are heroes stfu there useless twats what sit and eat mcdonalds all day and half of um are corrupt just like the goverment.

[shockolanu]

Take their canes and stick them in their arses.

[vamtim]

How to start a riot by the police!

[WolfpawAnarchy]

Amazing footage, plain to see the provocation by the police, lets keep up the good fight!!

[minnimerc]

MP on the helmets, so these guys are not even real police.

Why is it Military police in a civil matter ?

Get the REAL police to charge these thugs impersonating peace officers with violent disorder.

[tricky20001]

@minnimerc I think is Metropolitan Police, theres so many of them with MP on their helmet.

[minnimerc]

@tricky20001 thx

Duh.............lol.

I come from an area frequented by military police who think they have total jurisdiction over civilians.

[Jonny30284]

@tricky20001 Because they are all part of the Metropolitan Police Service, My helmet has MP written on it aswell.

[WolfpawAnarchy]

@minnimerc metropolitan police or aka city of london police

[THRIPS101]

@WolfpawAnarchy

A.k.a Massive Pricks.

[ococircusboy]

@minnimerc well done blimey - MP stands for met police !!

[jonstable]

@minnimerc MP is for Metropolitan Police :)

[OletBrasiliasta]

@minnimerc isn't military police its metropolitan police(mp) aka scotland yard.

[Obain]

@minnimerc MP stands for Metropolitan Police you utter utter terrible spastic.

[minnimerc]

@Obain I love how all of you jump to defend this type of Brainwashing by picking on the disabled.... the met used to have a badge that said MET.

MP is also used by ministry of defence police.

trying to amalgamate all the services together so thick twats like you canny tell the difference. go back under your rock.

[Obain]

@minnimerc The military police don't hold a copywrite on the letters 'MP'. If you can't tell the difference between the military police who wear camouflage, red berets, routine firearms and work abroad and Metropolitan Police who wear bright yellow or blue, NATO helmets, batons and handcuffs, beat helmets and caps and work in London you are still a retard.

[minnimerc]

@Obain you really are quite dim my new found friend, but are obviously an expert on these things why would the met police not use the prefix Met (to save on paint).

[Obain]

@minnimerc I actually pity anyone who has to deal with you. If you still think those are military policemen based on the letters 'MP' you are one of the biggest idiots on youtube.

I suppose members of parliment (MPs) are all Military Policeman as well?

As for 'saving on paint' MET would use more fucking paint than MP does you muppet.

[minnimerc]

@Obain What planet are you on bawbag, Grow up and learn a bit of English, or how at least learn how to use the computer.

Go back to your drums it's safer

[adammclad]

how is horses still even an option in 2010? its not the middle ages and a horse is unpredictable IT WILL BOLT.

police should be sued by everysingle person injured that day

U can actually see people who were not doing anything wrong actually starting to become violent after they are HIT BY A FUCKING BATON

[adammclad]

how is horses still even an option in 2010? its not the middle ages and a horse is unpredictable IT WILL BOLT.

police should be sued by everysingle person injured that day

[bloodyredtape]

the people need spears

[VoteLib3rty]

I was just waiting for the crowd to throw nets on them like planet of the apes....

[Stockhauz]

on another note, how good aren't those horses. If I was a horse in the same situation where kids are banging and things and throwing things at me I would kick the mother fuckers ass. Very well trained horses. ANd yes I know what you gonna say "if the police didn't charge us we wouldnt have had to throw things at them etc. etc." still would never ever in my entire life throw things at horses, specially not around shit loads of people and "friends" that easily could get trampeed and killed.

[rsolgtp]

this whole thing was caused by a violent minority. you can spot them in the crowd. the ones with the yellow jackets.

[Jonny30284]

@rsolgtp How dare you say that! What use are your type of people in this world? NO USE so do yourself and us police officers a favour and go jump in front of a speeding train!

[rsolgtp]

@Jonny30284 aww dont like being called a violent scum bag? were you in that crowd? because from what i saw there were plenty of officers behaving like they wanted a ruck. Well hey you wont be an officer for long. if you are one of the few peace keeping officers( I know the few good apples) because there will only be jobs for those prepared to beat on protesters. YOUR JOB IS NEXT. and yes i dare say that. i know plenty of coppers.at least the ex coppers (doormen)

[Jonny30284]

@rsolgtp The security of my job is tucked up in bed nice and SAFE so i am free to beat the criminals out of the streets as a senior officer FOREVER without the likes of you screaming about it!

[rsolgtp]

@Jonny30284 just the sort of scum bag walking the streets. the answer to your statement is "fuck you fascist"

you just show exactly the sort of mentality in the police force it doesn't need. emphasis on force.

[Big5000K]

@rsolgtp They are doing their jobs, you can easily see people trying to attack them with poles and sticks. They were called out because the idiots decided to cause havoc in the streets, this would have never happened if people were civil.

[cezuk]

To be fair, it must be pretty scary to be a policeman faced with a baying crowd continually pushing towards you, whilst your senior officers have instructed you to basically hold them back using whatever means available.

Personally, if I was put in that position and given a baton, I couldn't *guarantee* I wouldn't lash out at some of the tossers that were causing trouble.

That said, that's why I'm not a policeman. Maybe some of the guys on this video need re-evaluate their career choices.

[unionworkeruk]

The demonstrators were obviously responding to the continual baton and mounted attacks from the police. The police made no attempt to hold the crowd without batoning them even when no violence was used against them. Pushing is always going to happen with any large crowd such as Royal Weddings and Film premieres but the police dont seem to baton those crowds so readily. Makes you think the police have a political agenda of their own.

Check out the Police Inspectors Blog for their real views.

[PeterPannier]

the question for the news media is, if this is student violence, and not police provocation - how on earth did you come to that conclusion?

[PeterPannier]

from 1:49 - assume you were focussing on the 'Medic' wielding a truncheon. WTF is going on there? Anyone with better background know the significance of this? shouldn't he be behind lines looking for and preparing to deal with injured (both protestors and actually police too...seems a bit odd to abandon your colleagues for the sake of a bit of argy bargy, but that's coppers for you...)?
