  • This is really one of the better videos documenting this protest, you have a lot of great footage here, good work.

  • Well done protesters. You managed to injury someone just trying to do their job. Do you think he deserved to be injured? Again, well done.

  • Its like watching a cross between a Vidal Sassoon advert and a casting programme for the CBBCs

    The police just need a few flamethrowers, fire  them through the fence after blowing a whistle

  • you lot disgust me!!! these police could have been doing something proper like catching criminals and instead they have to look after a bunch of idiots protesting about something that isnt going to change!!! and you also harm the police. i hope the next time your in danger they just leave you to rot!!!
