UN No Fly Zone over London today?

[Pondlife]

People from across the country are converging on London for a march in protest at the coalition government's spending cuts.

The Trades Union Congress predicts more than 100,000 people will join the march, to be policed by 4,500 police.

Clearly the people are not happy with the government and want a change.

Does this mean all Heathrow flights will be shot down?

I expect if the government sent the troops in and started shooting people there might be some international outcry. Sarzosky in particular would probably give his eye teeth to lead the invasion force.

Are you sure about that? Aren't Cameron and Sarkozky currently best pals ("let's share an aircraft carrier etc")? Seems very suspicious to me, beginning to remind me of a Rowan Atkinson film, Johnny English.

Doubtful. The French don't "do" invasion.

The agent provocateurs will be out getting the trouble going.

They will then walk to Hyde Park for a rally from 1330 GMT where speakers will include Labour leader Ed Miliband.

Let's hope he gets kettled.

And doing it in their lingerie could start a riot by themselves.

Yep, he'll be in need of a nice cup of tea by then.

Watching BBC there. Some fruit loop was having a go at Ed Balls about the cuts for child services, shouting about peados.

Ed was crapping himself and it took a length of time before someone cleared him away. I'm not sure the guy knew that he was in opposition.

A woman on the telly just now was saying she was there to raise awareness amongst the public and make the politicians think about what they were doing. Then they asked her if she thought it would work, and she thought for a second, and said "No."

Another bloke just said "there are millions of us here today, at least 1 or 2 million. We are the majority of this country". Maths not a strong point amongst socialists.
