I not only had salami,

I also had crispy bacon and bockwurst and boiled eggs and sliced cheese.
I fucking love a proper continental breakfast. As in the breakfast you have on the continent, not that shit excuse for only giving you some bread and jam.

Okay, a good example would be a sign saying "Parking here is free on Sundays"
the implication being that other than on Sundays the parking is not free. Therefore pointing out the exception (free parking on sunday) proves the rule (you must pay for parking at other times).
So it's a perfectly valid phrase, but it's not appropriate to many situations and so is usually used incorrectly.

the sad little bottom line is
that for some people the chance to come to or march through london and annoy everyone who just wants to get on with their lives is as exciting as it gets.

why can't they go and march through cardiff or somewhere where no one will notice any damage done
like Wigan

The type of people who are fiddling the system and have fat sponger arses do not bother to go on demos.
They show as much disdain for protesters as you do.
Please make generalisations about another group.

I actually like their records up to Sgt Pepper.
That LP is fucking dire. The White Album is even worse bar Helter Skelter but the more straightforward pop songs they started out doing were quite good, I feel.

But you justsaid you liked early Beatles and that was simplistic pop.
They were a boyband in a way.

when they tried not to be simplistic. Nothing wrong with being simplistic in music - in fact it's often an asset.

sorry roots, but this particular rant was triggered by the smugness of
"wahey look at me, i'm an anarchist and i am going to fix everything by bringing london to a standstill and maybe SMASHING stuff too, wheeeeee."
the reality is, it won't make a blind bit of difference to the government or the cuts. it will just inconvenience millions of people who have the misfortune to be trying to go about their daily lives or enjoying their holiday in london. if people could find a better way of protesting, maybe we could all actually get behind the causes and support them too and some change could happen.

I don't agree with smashing shit up either.
I like nice "careful now" impotent placard-waving and sing-songs. My days of lying in front of buses are over.
I'm just making the point that not everybody there on Saturday will be out to cause a problem. Most will stick to the approved route. A great deal of them are well-off hard-working tax-payers (like doctors). Some of them may well be naive, smelly, and 'povs'. They have a right to wander through the capital on an approved route shouting "Down with that sort of thing" even though it will achieve fuck all.
Most of them will not be the lazy fat cunts we're thinking of. Anyone who smashes a shop window is an angry tit. Some of the people who will be losing out due to the cuts will be previously hard-working tax-payers who have become disabled/unfortunate through no fault of their own. I am happy to pay my taxes to help them. It could be you or me one day.

the problem is
that we get them all the time in london. all the time. if it's not about the war, it's about petrol prices, if it's not about petrol it's about bikes, if it's not about bikes, it's about students, if it's not about students, it's about the tamil tigers, if it's not about the tamil tigers, it's about the cuts...
if you do anything too often, it loses its impact. protest marches are just another one of these same things. nobody cares. nobody in london will feel anything other than irritation at having to miss a night out or being locked in a shop for a few hours or having to pay more council tax to clear up the shit. yes you could say that is shallow and selfish, and you'd be right. but when it affects their lives, eg their ability to do their job, people are selfish. look at the reaction to the tube strikes - not one jot of public sympathy do those tube drivers have, now that bob crow has cried wolf fifteen times a year. it's not that i am saying people shouldn't protest, or that these issues aren't important. but this is not the way to effect change. it won't make a scrap of difference.

I know it won't, but people are driven to do it anyway.
They do it in every capital, part and parcel of living there.
Just like buying a house near football ground and moaning about the hordes of mongs parking in your street and throwing their burger wrappers outside your house every fortnight. You AND the protestors are King Canute AICMFP.

But King Canute was actually demonstrating that even a king didn't have the power
to overrule nature, so your comparison is totally inaccurate.

And it's worth pointing out that
your freedom to call all these people cunts is exactly the same freedom that they are using to have their protest. You can't have it both ways, either there is freedom of speech or their isn't.

read the OP's comments for the glee that is clearly being taken
whilst they are causing a huge problem and actually costing the system more, i am trying to do a job that is paying money into the same system.
i say "i" but i mean "everyone working here or otherwise spending money in the country's crippled economy".
how can stopping this possibly be a good thing?

The cost of the policing is a fairly redundant argument since the cost is measured in the hundreds of thousands
but the amount of money being cut is in the order of billions.
And they aren't stopping people doing their jobs, they are just making their feeling about the stupidity of the current governments attitude clear to the government. The best way to do that is to make the protest as large as possible so that their opinions are noted.

their opinions won't be noted
the government doesn't care.
there isn't enough money coming in to support everything that is going out. therefore people smashing stuff isn't going to change a red cent. the only way to improve it is to earn more money so you can pay more tax and make the country better off!

We should charge each protester a quid to be there and herd them all into Wembley
They can shout to their hearts content in there, and there is no way they could trash the surrounding area.

They generally involve having to get up and do some fucking work
I do not approve of this.
Also, because I employ a policy of doing fuck all at the weekends, Monday mornings are usually accompanied by a massive stack of dishes, and at least two bins that need emptying.
