You have not put an option in the poll Millwall:  "To support them in their political action" !!

We are not (yet) a non-free speaking, totalitarian state, where the masses cannot make their point of view known ::) ::) ::)

Don't forget it is a tiny number who always cause trouble during protests against the government in power ;) ;)

Thanks Millwall! :y :y :y

Sorry, but you are swallowing line, hook, and sinker the media hype / government propaganda.

A large number of Canterbury Christ Church University politics students, and our lecturers, attended the first big demonstration (when the extinguishers were thrown) and they joined thousands who simply protested peacefully all around the centre of London with no trouble at all seen by them.  The media were nowhere to be seen!!

As always it was a tiny number of "professional" aggitators, especially anachists and other anti-authority groups, who caught the attention of the cameras.  They did not represent the vast majority of the REAL student protesters, who incuded many mature students! ;)

Couldn't give a flying break for the Royals, threaten them all you like.

University is a farse nowadays... degree's in rubbish which holds no real value in society.  Even 'proper' degree's are a waste of time as there are no jobs for graduates anyway.  The market is flooded.

Get back to the times where a University Degree actually meant something.  The only way to do that is make it an achievement only the 'elite' can attain!

I do have to agree with you there Lizzie. Very much like that episode of 'Coppers' with the EDL protest. At least that program showed the whole event and how well behaved the EDL were for the majority of the day. All until the other group joined right at the end.

I find it difficult to vote!  :-?

I believe there should be a sliding scale for fees. Some courses, such as science, engineering should be free. Others, such as Arts & Business degrees, should be chargeable, but nowhere near as high as the £9k/year proposed. The lesser, dafter, courses in pop music performance, hair dressing management & equestrian psychology (yes, they are all real), should charged at cost+lots. :y

On the other hand, whilst I support the right of students to protest, I do not support the right to violence or damage to property. Nor, do I support the right of demonstrators to cover their faces with scarves or balaclavas. >:(

Can I abstain, pretty please?  ;) ;D ;D

Sorry BM but you have obviously no idea about how hard uni students work on the serious academic, or medical subjects taught at Canterbury Christ Church and many other universities ::)

You are also ignoring the fact that university prepares the young, and mature, students for further years of study in the medical, teaching, engineering, legal, and technical fields, to name but a few!

Without that process GB.com would be deficient in the skills required to run a first world, high performing, country that can lead the rest in the field GB does currently.  I, and you, will also depend on todays young to produce the country's GDP to help us as OAP's to survive 8-) 8-)
