Police struggle to control hard-core anarchist rioters after 500,000-strong London march against government cuts ends in violence

Extremists brought violent chaos to Central London yesterday after hijacking the much-heralded trade union protest against public spending cuts. Trouble continued to flare late into the night as hundreds of people attempted to hijack yesterday's massive anti government cuts demonstration. Riot police fought activists in Trafalgar Square as violent protesters threatened to overshadow the TUC rally in Hyde Park which had earlier passed off peacefully. A Metropolitan Police spokesman said between 200 and 300 people had gathered at the landmark location late yesterday evening.

Anarchists and unions have long been “closet” allies.

Important detail, just in case anyone is missing it:

The government is trying to spend less. The government is trying to get smaller.
Who is really upset by that?
Anarchists.

What are Anarchists? Traditionally, Anarchists are people who believe government shoudl disappear; do nothing; leave the people alone; cease to exist.

Are these anarchsts in the UK?
No.
These are communist revolutionaries, operating under another name.

We have them here as well. They call themselves Progressives on this side of the water.

I wouldn’t take the description of anarchists too seriously. They just like to go out and cause trouble.

This is what happens when students don’t have to work to go to school and the police don’t use their guns on the criminals rioting the way they are. What is so unusual is that the rioters are literally attacking the posh hotels and shops, not just staying in some area around campus. I really cannot fathom this, I really cannot; the idiots are going to destroy their tourist industry.

Good point! Wouldn’t REAL anarchists be applauding the shrinking of government (even if it had negatives to it)?

Many, not some. These are professional rioters who show up in places like Seattle and Vancouver and London and Paris. Coming to a city near US soon, if Barry the Bastard’s henchghouls have their way.

I would agree. I believe that in a short time, we shall see riots like this here in the US. The police in the US would not do what was necessary, but an armed citizenry could and should.

And if the police were stupid enough to intervene against the citizens exerting crowd control, then I think things would get really ugly.

They don't come to flyover country for some reason. I'm guessing its fear.
