A video of the student protest held in London on the 24th of November. Trying to capture a 'fair' impression of the student protest; people standing up for their rights, fighting the cuts, the vandalized police van, people dancing and cheering, protesting peacefully, holding speeches, and last, but definitely not least, the police using the 'kettling' tactic to control the crowd.

I hope you'll agree with me after watching this video that the majority of the students were protesting peacefully, and that the police had no reason to keep the crowd stuck at Whitehall for hours in the freezing cold without facilities like food, drinks and toilets for most of the time.

But hey, let me hear YOUR thoughts - while watching this video, my question for you is; was this necessary??!!

*whoops, small mistake in the date in the first few seconds of the video; I put 22 November 2010 - this should be 24 November 2010 of course. Perhaps I shouldn't do any video-editing when still in a state of shock and disbelief about the protest. ;)

  • You may not like it but the police were completely within their rights. Although it was an organised event, you were creating a disturbance to the peace, therefore the police had right to detain you until they were happy for you to leave.

  • Kids who have never contributed a penny in tax demanding that our hard earned tax money is spent on them so they can go to uni to study dumbed down useless courses like media studies & sports studies. Just piss off back to mummy & daddy.

  • 0:47 Whitehall Palace

  • Talk about a revolution.

  • Whooo Fight back!

  • The minority ruin it for the majority. Police are well within their rights.
