With the current approach of front loading the cuts, I have wondered how long before the police themselves start to protest the cuts they'll face?
Police Face 15% funding cuts
There have been claims that up to 18,000 police jobs will be lost as a result of this 20% cut in Whitehall funding.
tho the numbers being thrown around are in dispute, what should not be disputed is the police are stuffed should these protests grow in strength and numbers.

“Queen Elizabeth II the largest landowner on Earth.”
Queen Elizabeth II, head of state of the United Kingdom and of 31 other states and territories, is the legal owner of about 6,600 million acres of land, one sixth of the earth’s non ocean surface.
She is the only person on earth who owns whole countries, and who owns countries that are not her own domestic territory. This land ownership is separate from her role as head of state and is different from other monarchies where no such claim is made ... www.whoownstheworld.com...

It seems like the UK keeps losing rights and is becoming or has become nanny state. That is just my outside observation, I have yet to visit the country.
I do want to know if there water supply is flourinated like it is here in the US. There is a little of talk on here about Americans becoming 'soft' and complaint to a lot of things and I can't help but wonder if that has something to do with it.

Articles 114, 115, 117, 118, 123, 124 and 153 of the Constitution of the German Reich are suspended until further notice. It is therefore permissible to restrict the rights of personal freedom [habeas corpus], freedom of opinion, including the freedom of the press, the freedom to organize and assemble, the privacy of postal, telegraphic and telephonic communications. Warrants for House searches, orders for confiscations as well as restrictions on property, are also permissible beyond the legal limits otherwise prescribed.
This is the text of the Reichstag Fire Decree passed in response to the parliament being burned down in 1933. Article 123 was the freedom of assembly. These people love the NAZI's - they study the NAZI methods and they understand how Hitler, with a minority, was able to transform a nation of 63 million seemingly overnight. It is unabashed evil.

People in the U.K. are not sheeples. They already know what is going on in the background. Same happened in my country, similar odds, similar tactics... then we've won against the TPTB.

All right America. You ready to lose your 1st amendment rights? Well ready or not because here it comes.
THE TIME TO PROTEST IS NOW.
The pressure is rising, and we are about to become criminals for voicing any negative opinions about the poeple running the show.
THESE MEN AND WOMEN ARE CRIMINALS.
This is their final plan to take away true freedom. Any of you who believe this is for your own safety should pull your head out of wherever is is and realize what they are going to do!!! By now theres been people predicting this for at least the last 4 to 5 years and yet none of us have taken any steps to prevent it.... In fact we've helped them push it right along because of APATHY and LAZINESS, BUT MOST OF ALL FEAR.
Our brothers and sisters in Britain are fighting a battle that will soon come here. We must act now before it's too late for us. GOOD LUCK BRITAIN.
It's time to shed fear and stand up for ourselves. Very soon people like me are going to be labeled as criminals because I choose FREE WILL and LIBERTY. Very soon the government will try to put people like me behind bars for taking a stand against corruption. Very soon they will do the same to you.
Do you like being able to think how you want to think and act how you want to act? Can you be responsible for your own life? Do you want the government to help you put your diapers on every morning? DO ANY OF YOU REMEMBER THE TASTE OF BEING FREE MEN AND WOMEN?
THE TIME IS NOW. I don't know how many times we have to go over it for it to stick, but we are running out of hours to make something happen. Each day that goes by is another day wasted. We need to get out to DC and tell them we aren't playing by their rules any more. We need to remind them that the PEOPLE, not the politicians or the banksters, are the ones who run this country. AND WE MUST MAKE A REAL CHANGE.
I am pleading with you America, I am begging you to WAKE UP. SMACK YOURSELVES IN THE FACE AND OPEN YOUR EYES TO THEIR CORRUPTION.
Our Bill of Rights was given to us by the founders of our country as a reminder that WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO OUR DUTY AS FREE MEN AND WOMEN; WHEN THE GOVERNMENT STARTS ACTING LIKE IT'S ACTING NOW, WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR TAKING IT BACK AND MAKING OUR COUNTRY SANE AGAIN.
PLEASE HELP ME TAKE A STAND.
I can't do it alone. If we got together with one UNITED VOICE, and told them WE ARE DONE WITH YOUR TYRANNY, they would be forced to listen. WE MUST DO THIS. WE WILL HAVE NO FUTURE IF WE DON'T.

Surly they cant do that?
I think its bad that they have to agree to a certain route for the protests as it is. Shouldnt protests be about doing something to make the govt listen to us? They cant tell us how to protest.
