    What makes you SOMEONE has to be to blame? Sometimes things just happen. Being a race on a planet of limited resorces isnt a black and white operation. Just ask the Dinosaurs

    They were not the cause of the problem but they are victims of the outcome.

    The extinction of Dinosaurs was an act of god. This financial crisis wasn't. It didn't just 'happen'.

    Walked past the lads & lasses camped @ Greys Monument I can see they are clearly unhappy with taxes but I am assuming Income tax is not one of them atm.

    Do we know where the usual crowd that hang around GM are going to sit i.e Goths, bamps/Charvas drinking & people from diverse ethnic backgrounds..

    Are you saying the Purvey Immigrants have been forced to move on because of this?

    Maybe some good will come of this

    The Hippies have most of the area covered with tents & equipment around GM so it could be a tight squeeze for some of the regular sorts to get there usual spot.

    Tbf they are based on the raised part around GM itself & are not in the way of people going about there daily business.

    the point about the bankers is that, unlike the rest of us, they can gamble with other peoples money and when they win they keep the money and when they lose we all pick up the tab.

    The taxpayer paid out billions of dollars to prop up the banks and as a result we have thousands and thousands of people out of work, benefits slashed and STILL the bankers keep getting their bonuses. The conditions that caused this have not been changed so we are heading for another crash. They have hoovered all the wealth out of businesses and governments. Who will pay for the next crash? the weakest and most vulnerable groups in society. Far from 'stopping whinging" we should be rioting in the streets till the politicians and their friends in casino capitalism stop fucking about with all our futures.

    Only was 1 tent was pitched on Sunday and there's now 5.

    Look to be true to their word given they've prepared for the windy weather with bricks.
