It would seem that to they’d like to give the police yet more power: “This three-part consultation seeks your views on the areas of police powers which the government is committed to reviewing: – the relevance of the word ‘insulting‘ in section 5 of the [...]]]> http://www.anonymong.org/2012/01/12/sneaky-sneaky-very-sneaky-2/feed/ 5 http://www.anonymong.org/2011/08/09/is-it-getting-quieter/ http://www.anonymong.org/2011/08/09/is-it-getting-quieter/#comments Tue, 09 Aug 2011 21:30:18 +0000 Giolla http://www.anonymong.org/?p=1874 So far in London tonight at least things seem quieter, though equally that may be that it’s just being reported less. Whilst I’m very glad it’s quietened down it’s worrying as it hasn’t got quieter because the looters have been stopped, more they’ve simply stopped for now. This may be due to the vast numbers [...]]]> http://www.anonymong.org/2011/08/09/is-it-getting-quieter/feed/ 1 http://www.anonymong.org/2011/08/09/lazy-comparisons-a-go-go/ http://www.anonymong.org/2011/08/09/lazy-comparisons-a-go-go/#comments Tue, 09 Aug 2011 11:50:19 +0000 Giolla http://www.anonymong.org/?p=1868 Seeing as today seems to be a day for lazy comparisons I thought I’d join in the fun and games, the relationship between my tongue and my cheek is left as an exercise to the readers. Currently we are told have poor disenfranchised youths (who can afford to buy blackberry’s) finding their voice by looting [...]]]> http://www.anonymong.org/2011/08/09/lazy-comparisons-a-go-go/feed/ 1 http://www.anonymong.org/2011/08/08/more-than-a-bit-miffed/ http://www.anonymong.org/2011/08/08/more-than-a-bit-miffed/#comments Mon, 08 Aug 2011 23:51:01 +0000 Giolla http://www.anonymong.org/?p=1864 I’m rather fond of London, even the bits I don’t like I’m quite fond of – apart from a sojourn out in the depths of Essex for a long decade I’ve lived somewhere within it’s environs for my entire life. This means that I get more than a bit miffed when some miserable hooligans decide [...]]]> http://www.anonymong.org/2011/08/08/more-than-a-bit-miffed/feed/ 0 http://www.anonymong.org/2010/12/09/student-rage/ http://www.anonymong.org/2010/12/09/student-rage/#comments Thu, 09 Dec 2010 20:45:25 +0000 Giolla http://www.anonymong.org/?p=1334 So predictably the government has voted to raise the upper limit of fees that universities can be changed and equally predictably another student demo has descended into violence. Whilst as mentioned before I did benefit from a free University education but that was when a much smaller number of students went to University but as [...]]]> http://www.anonymong.org/2010/12/09/student-rage/feed/ 0 http://www.anonymong.org/2010/11/14/a-miscellany-of-idiocy/ http://www.anonymong.org/2010/11/14/a-miscellany-of-idiocy/#comments Sun, 14 Nov 2010 21:11:21 +0000 Giolla http://www.anonymong.org/?p=1245 Having muttered about the student “demo” previously I find myself returning to the subject due to comments made by other commentators and people that were there. From the title of this post you can probably gather that I disagree with their points really quite strongly. But of course it’s not just supporters of the student [...]]]> http://www.anonymong.org/2010/11/14/a-miscellany-of-idiocy/feed/ 0 http://www.anonymong.org/2010/11/12/riot-for-the-media/ http://www.anonymong.org/2010/11/12/riot-for-the-media/#comments Fri, 12 Nov 2010 18:43:09 +0000 Giolla http://www.anonymong.org/?p=1229 So the students have taken to the streets to protest at the proposed changes to student funding. On the plus side they start out with some very nice placards clearly stating their cause, then left a load of grafitti which didn’t mention it. The rather pointless riot somewhat spoilt it though, starting initially in the [...]]]> http://www.anonymong.org/2010/11/12/riot-for-the-media/feed/ 0 http://www.anonymong.org/2009/09/28/naming-the-seasons/ http://www.anonymong.org/2009/09/28/naming-the-seasons/#comments Mon, 28 Sep 2009 21:58:54 +0000 Giolla http://www.anonymong.org/?p=468 So the Summer of rage[tm] is drawing to a close without all that much rage being in evidence. Anger, disgust and even outrage but none of the rage we were promised. so I’d just like to get in before the usual suspects do and suggest that we are about to move into: The Autumn of [...]]]> http://www.anonymong.org/2009/09/28/naming-the-seasons/feed/ 0 http://www.anonymong.org/2009/08/30/climate-camp-comedy/ http://www.anonymong.org/2009/08/30/climate-camp-comedy/#comments Sun, 30 Aug 2009 12:15:09 +0000 Giolla http://www.anonymong.org/?p=449 The news tells me that Climate Camp in Greenwich now presumably being in full swing, I don’t know if it is or isn’t I’ve not been down there and have no intention in going. At least not without being heavily armed with non-organic petrochemical based soap to keep the hippies at bay.

Having been sat at home working I can only go by the reports sent in by the BBC, blogs and other media outlets. Which probably gives me as much authority to comment as most people [...]]]> http://www.anonymong.org/2009/04/01/trouble-delivered-as-ordered/feed/ 0
