Oops. I even noticed spell-check had highlighted that. But why be bound by the bourgois conventions of spelling that have kept the working man down for centuries and, er, fuck the rich, er, fight the power, er.
Bollocks, that's an urban myth that old folk perpetuate e.g *We never had to lock our doors when I was a kid.

A full grant, unemployment benefit during the holidays (with no interviews or any expectation that you would find a job), train and accommodation expenses for interviews paid in full..... it really was a different world. Only about 4 or 5% of people going to University for one thing.

But to be honest, im just glad people are striking and taking to the streets at this moment in time, no matter what the cause, Its nice to see that the country has not fallen into irreversible political apathy, which is what its felt like for a very long time.[/QUOTE] *
Trouble is people have been protesting all along; as I said earlier the protests just don't have any effect or are even noticed at all. Maybe, maybe, massive and frequent demonstrations might have an effect now or once the consequences of the cuts start to be felt but I doubt it. As per my earlier point I could never decide whether street protests were worth it or not regardless of their impact.
