    I presume it's referring to austerity measures' protests but I would not count that as an ongoing protest.

    Oh, it is elaborated on;

    Judging by the others on the list. It looks to be protests at a National level not just local or regional protests

    Thats quite daft.

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.
