Protest start to begin all over the England already and cuts changed everyones life, despite hopes that it would be a peaceful protest, between four and five hundred protesters, labelled as criminals by the police have caused havoc and destruction in protests against the government’s spending cuts.
Over a quarter of a million people turned out on the streets of London to voice their opinion over the severity of cuts in public services and Ed Milliband, the Labour leader, also attended, speaking to the crowd in Hyde Park along with TUC general secretary Brendan Barber who said, “We are here to send a message to the government that we are strong and united,”
Regarding BBC 125 people arrested and 45 people injured in London today and many unknown but you can expect to see more protest in UK due coalition goverments failers regarding to many reports again, however goverment start with cuts and loosing blood as we say.
It was the largest public demonstration since the anti Iraq War protest of 2003 and whilst it was good natured on the whole, the violent demonstrators caused damage to Topshop in Oxford Street, where windows were smashed and paint thrown on the walls.
Similarly branches of several banks had windows smashed or were broken into. TV footage shows a man trying to lever open a cash machine with a crowbar. Elsewhere protesters staged a sit in at one of London’s top stores, Fortnum and Masons.
More seriously, the organised nature of the violence was evidenced in the large number of ammonia filled glass light bulbs that were thrown at members of the police force marshalling the protests.
Eventually, the violent protesters were corralled in Piccadilly where police managed to make 16 arrests.
Mr Milliband was keen to press home his dismay at the government’s cuts but was unable to offer any ideas of his own to counter the parlous state of the country’s finances after 13 years of Labour rule.
His only offering was to say that Labour would try to recoup the £25bn of tax that isn’t paid each year, something that this week’s Tory budget also suggested.
The organisers went to great lengths to condemn the violence saying that they hoped it didn’t detract from the message they wanted to put across.
