Oh come on. Sorry, that is always the line -- "outside agitators" right? The
idiot on the Cenotaph was the son of a Pink Floyd guitarist. And while the
police have not done good job with these demostrations (they have a tendency to
try and contain things leading to panic), it is the same Trotskyite groups that
have been starting trouble with every demonstration for years. A couple a
months ago I found myself on Whitehall face to face with some guy holding an
anti-war sign screaming "No War but the class war" at me. I guess he is on
David Cameron's payroll also.

Of course not, but he wasn't there trying to get the tuition reduced. He was
likely an anarchist.

always understood." -- Robert Menzies
