What ever you think of Jack Straw, his decisions or his policies there can be no denying he dealt with this well. Full respect to the hecklers as well!

Makes a very serious issue in the a joke that can be brushed off. Nice idea, but FAIL.

@written12 An elderly man was violently ejected from a conference at which he was an official delegate, those who tried to help him were very roughly treated. Then he was arrested under terrorism charges. This is what they did in Germany in the early 30s, just this. Shall we breathe a sigh of relief that they didnt take him out back and break his legs. Watch the video, mate. They were up for that, they were under orders.

NICE ONE. Politicians are a joke anyway... but their actions or in actions arent a joke. For its us normal foke who have to live with the consequences.

The look on Straw's face as the singers started up,was very reminiscent of the look on Nicolai Ceausescu's face when the crowd he was addressing started booing and jeering him....two weeks later they put him against a wall and shot him.
Ah..the good ole' days !

This is what should have been done to the Obamanator
after the "You Lie!" incident.
A quartet? I counted five singers.....

@Floatingone1 - One of the five was the presenter of the documentary. So he was not in the group. Therefore there were just four.

A novel and charming way of heckling, though I don't share your politics.
When you suggest that free expression and liberty is on the rocks in the U.K. you really lose me. I understand the concern about the 24/7 surveillance state. But maybe that's what follows as a result of a nation welcoming so many hostile and violent aliens.

We're the most watched nation on the planet. Our internet traffic is monitored (and will soon be recorded for 3 years if the gov get there way) our vehicle movements are recorded and monitored, we're constantly watched on CCTV, and you're not allowed to protest in groups larger than 3 people under recent laws. Anti-terror laws are being openly abused and this follows on the footsteps of lies that make people believe we're somehow under widespread attack from "terrorists."

Like the way Straw reacted - by conducting them!
He's thick as shit, of course, but that was quite a witty reaction by him.

Yeah I liked his reaction. That was fair enough, but how sad that we can only be heard by doing something as daft as that. I truly despise the way we are herded and watched 24/7 here in the UK. And now they want to start a huge internet database too. Disgraceful, but people won't do anything because the majority don't care enough as long as it doesn't effect their ability to watch crap TV and eat shit. :/
