UK government plans to treble tuition fees (for higher eductation) where voted through in parliament yesterday. Students all across the UK have been protesting against this rise in fees. The atmosphere at these protests is becoming more agitated and violent by the day. Public and private property gets destroyed, police gets charged and national monuments defaced. It is thought left wing anarchists are using these protests for a good ol’ fight with the establishment aka the police and politicians. Where will it end? With a poll tax riot 2.0?
