Re: UK Wide protests

These people are absolutely entitled to protest about the ongoing austerity measures.

I actually agree with them to an extent, however I very much disagree with them to an extent also.

The hypocrisy of the Palace of Westminster if it ends up being renovated and returned to service as seat of government is pretty grim. For a fraction of the cost Parliament could be moved elsewhere, achieving two worthwhile goals in one.

Housing benefit has indeed gotten completely out of control but I'm sure everyone knows my solution to resolving that issue.

All that said I have to wonder just how many of these protesters are actually paying their way in our society. It's very easy to ask for more of other people's money; I wonder if more constructive arguments than just opposing austerity wouldn't be a better choice.
