I am confounded though at ANYONE who can accept any kind of protest - peaceful or otherwise - at the results of a fairly held, constitutionally correct, democratic General Election, because what is TRULY being protested about and opposed here, is DEMOCRACY itself - let us not delude ourselves.
As BitOnTheSlide and others have already eloquently stated, we have a democratic procedure in place and the Conservatives won the election fair and square under that process.
It is notable that NO ONE on here was protesting about how UNFAIR that process was BEFORE the Election.
Indeed,when it was pointed out by certain members that despite securing almost 4 million votes UKIP has only ONE voice in Parliament whilst the SNP secured 56 seats with half of the UKIP number of votes, certain FM's were quick to point out that such was the system, and still others pointed out that the General Public had been presented with the opportunity to democratically change the system but did not avail themselve of it.
It is predictable that now the Left wing on here are defending these 'protests' because they are anti-Tory, but the inescapable truth is that peaceful or not, the protests are ludicrous when we have just held a General Election.
You ask: ''Where are the freedoms in this country now?'' while conveniently IGNORING the fact that these knobhead protesters are UTILISING just ONE of the many freedoms which our DEMOCRACY affords them. The very DEMOCRACY they are now protesting against.
The great and enraging IRONY here, is that while the peaceful element were availing themselves of the FREEDOM to demonstrate and protest, the inevitable 'professional anti-democratic, anti-Tory, anti-UK, anti-patriotic anarchist morons use that same freedom to desicrate a memorial to all the couragous patriotic women who FOUGHT and DIED for that very freedom.
If the Police ever catch the one/ones responsible, I will gladly VOLUNTER to put a bullet firmly and squarely in thecentre of their useless obsidian eyes.
If this is what the Left Wing stand for now, then I for one sincerely hope that the Labour Party NEVER win another General election ever again.

She has as much right to protest against the austerity measures as anyone.
Why are you working yourself up about this and suggesting you would shoot people? Get some perspective.
