I was right!

Oxford Utd fans are currently trying to storm the Bank of England.

Alty are standing their ground.....

[Mrs Warbouys]

This f**k wittery is a national embarrassment.  They should tear gas the lot of them, all middle class twerps from surrey with nowt better to do. I bet they came in to the city on a train or a bus operated by a company owned by a multi-national or financed by a large bank, the thick f**kers.

[RockyRobin]

Correct Mr Hughes.

Wearing the clothes, eating the food blah blah blah.

I love a protestor who doesn't have a viable alternative, should we go back to the fuedal sytem? Try Communism, oh no that didn't work did it....

Rocky - are you wearing the same suit and tie that you had on last night on the Terraces at Ebbsfleet?

[Paul Cain's Chip Pan]

On a serious note, one of my mates who came to the game last night works in the city and through his window he has seen groups of grotty scrotes surrounding people in suits and generally causing havoc all day. It's just not on, most of them don't even believe in the "cause" they just want to cause trouble!

Then there's the tax bill for the 5000 policemen/women that the taxpayer is going to be picking up.

Scum!

oh wait....

All things considered, I'd say it's doing fine.

I have dispensed of the suit for today, up at 6am to make sure I got on the train before the cheap tickets start for the pikeys!

oh wait....

Communism makes everybody poor.

A significant part of capitalism is the acceptance of an economy that will boom and then bust. Some political scientists say that bust is needed to create a bigger boom than before.

I think history has shown both of these things to be true.

[Longman]

Leftie idiots.

I'd argue that communism has never been implemented, not in a major country for any sustained period of time at least.  Even the USSR leaders admitted this. 

I have my sympathies with the protestors- the bonuses being given in the crisis are infuriating.  Years of campaigning have had little effect, so they take a more direct approach; not to say i agree with them, but i understand the frustration. 

The majority will have alternatives (though most are radical changes), the thing is that the group is such a mish-mash.  Anarchists, socialists, environmentalists, anti-war, anti-globalisation.  It's not a choice of the free market or communism.

Communism has an unbelievably optimistic view of human nature. They reckon that everybody is equal andeverybody is willing to accept that. The truth is that everybody wants to make the best for themselves and this is obviously going to be at the expense of others. This is why communism hasn't/can't/won't work.

[Reading Robin]

Yep, i'd agree with that pretty much on communism, but not that everybody wants the best for themselves.  There are some people (certainly not me though!) who are willing to completely focus on others above their own desires. 

The vast majority of these people aren't communists anyway.
