What's your opinion of the student protests and riots over tuition fees?


Proposed cuts to education and tripling of tuition fees led to an angry 500,000 strong demonstration in early November 2010. Further protests involving sit-ins at UK universities and colleges caused minor disruptions a fortnight later.

Rescinding on pre-election promises is reprehensibly unjust and our view is that everyone has a right to protest - peacefully. We say stand up and be counted. All too often FAQers lie back and grizzle and whinge without taking action and that too is outrageously shameful. Protest, protest and protest some more.

Our view however is that there's never an excuse for violence or crime and as for the person who threw the fire extinguisher from the roof top - shame on you!
