So they're a mob now?

:rolleyes: - Did I say they were a mob?

You've got a fair few leftist parties who aren't known for their peaceful protesting, in conjunction with a couple of thousand ordinary students and you can't make the jump that a mob could just assemble and absolutely wreck a regular Garda car? It doesn't take fifteen people to rock and roll over a car. Why take the risk, why just show up with a regular car and risk being unprepared if something kicks off when you can show up with a Garda van instead?

That was my point, thanks for missing it.

45 pounds per week for accomodation in England, close to university. How much is it in Ireland......

In Dublin it's closer to £80 for close to the university, unless you live in a house with a bigger number of bedrooms when it might come down closer to £65-70.

Guessing you're not a student from the spelling

It's not as ridiculous as throwing mars bars at a gate.

Just got a text and saw some tweets from some friends. The crowd went a bit out of control and tried to escape the violence. The Gardai are using excessive force and have large groups surrounded now.

He's been hit and bleeding badly, and literally asking for help on Twitter :mad:

I asked a simple question. No need to get touchy. If you're in situ tell us what's going on. Are they storming the Bastille yet?

It's probably how the majority of students going to "collage" spell 'rediculous' these days.

Did he twitter #ambulance or something? He does realise he could phone one, or walk to one? Looks like what people say about twitter taking over your life is true in one case at least.

You're kidding right?! I paid £130 a week plus travel card for the privilege of living in the south east of the UK. Granted the beer is a bit cheaper over there but not much

You know I'd have issued an apology for taking you up wrong if you'd have left it after your second sentence. Clearly you're taking the piss with your last line.

Asking for help on twitter? Seriously? If he's bleeding he should go to the hospital.

Throwing Mars bars is not only childless but completely idiotic.

He said it's been too loud for the emergency services to comprehend what he was saying

Gardai in doing their jobs shocker. Sorry about your mate but if they arrest and charge the usual riot starters then less future peaceful protests will get hijacked.

Ya'd think they'd be able to see how "badly bleeding" he is.

Asking for help on twitter?! Clearly hasn't demonstrated the intelligence to be a university student. :rolleyes:

Wait until the budget, there will be wide scale riots.

+1

If those morons don't behave decently, we could have a mass riot on our streets. Well done to all those who are protesting peacefully, but a colossal "fuck you!" to the violent halfwits.

Make all students look bad (Was one myself not long ago). :mad:

Funny man. Very hard to be seen if you're stuck in the middle of a large crowd.
