Road closures & public transport disruption for Lib Dem conference

no doubt it will happen though:roll:

 

And rightly so if some "activist" wants to travel from Brighton with the sole intention of attempting to destroy our city.

So you think its alright for the police to be battening a women that puts up no resistance.

i agree with you, its the peaceful protesters that get dragged into it i feel for, the police rarely distinguish between, activist & peaceful protestor & both end up getting a wallop

Notice the word "if". Quite significant in that context.

As this conference goes on to Sunday. I wonder what provision has been made for those who may be making their way to Church? I believe there is a legal right to worship on a Sunday and not be obstructed from it.

 

Which places of worship do you think might be obstructed? I can't think of any.

St Matthews Carver Street ?

St Matthews Carver Street ?

 

In the unlikely event it will be closed, other places of worship are available, so the argument that someone is being denied a place to worship on a Sunday is total rubbish.

St Matthews Carver Street ?

 

Carver Street isn't planned to be closed. Although the bit where it crosses Division Street might have a march from Devonshire Green to Barkers Pool walking across it, that won't block access from the Charter Square end.

Or the socialist worker party as they are officially known. Revolution in 5 years and all that rubbish

No it will NOT be the SWP

 

They will be present and some will irritatingly attach themselves prominently and claim it to be "their" demonstration and ask you to sign "their" petitions

 

That does not mean that everyone there is a vanguardist trot

1I'm guessing most will be regulars, last week they were protesting about police cuts, then Libya, then teachers pensions and now the conference.

 

2 The best advice for them would be to get a job, have a shave and shut up.

 

 

1 Are these not legitimate things to protests about

 

 

2 Most I'll bet are there because they want to remain in a job. Plonker!

How’s this for British justice then.

 

 

You get a copper knocking on your door at 5am , with your son being out for the night you answer the door expecting the worst only to be told your sons car will have to be moved.

 

At 7.30 by the time your son gets back from hs mates to move the car it as been towed away and there is a £150 recovery fee.

Do you mean like me and my wife who have both been working hard for the last 20 years in education and the health service, paying our taxes, and who are incensed with this attack on public services?

We will both be there tomorrow, shave or no shave!......exercising our democratic right to protest (while it is still considered democratic!)
