Tamil protestors break through police lines
So what? What on earth do these people expect Britain to DO about the situation in their home country? Coming so soon after the G20 riots, I would like to see the police withdrawn completely, let the rioters, Tamil or otherwise, just get on with it. If they smash up the Houses of Parliament, then so what, burn it down, then so what. Let the ethnic minorities protest, it is their hooman rights, and Britain's responsibilty to do something about it.
I don't give a damn any more. This country is a joke.

here, here blessed, I'm getting seriously sick of these ar*eholes who stop traffic in a country they have chosen to live in, let the whole lot of them riot 'cos parliement is doing sweet FA about it, the police are dammed if they don't and dammed if they do.
What the hell can we do here about Sri-lanka?

Hang on, blessed:
You aren't me in disguise are you? You sound almost as cynical!
No, I totally disagree for one simple reason: The media would not then be able to have their usual one sided rant about how heavy handed the handful of Police on duty treated the several thousand "peaceful protesters". We wouldn't be able to have it rammed down our collective throats for the next ?????? years. The IPCC would be redundant!
Not only that, but it would deny dozens of the "peaceful protesters" to then accuse the "Fascist" Fuzz of spurious assaults, be paraded on telly with their "horrendous" injuries, get themselves not only a so-called "Publicity Magnate", but also accrue an obscene amount of money for their day's excursion to the "big Smoke".

Actually there is an interesting principle among this hot air. If the police aren't there to protect, where is the next backup? THERE ISN'T ONE. Whatever happened at G20, The Enemy Within is going to make the most of persecuting, prosecuting, and imprisoning the police, poor sods.
I too would like to see a crowd in full riot bear down on Parliament, Tamils, who cares, and burn it down, while the police stand by and watch, fearful of prosecution if they interfere.

Is this what we call freedom? That is freedom to sh?t all over the British public who have allowed them to stay here. Why don't they all get on their bikes and protest nearer to where they can be heard, not in Britain. It would help our cause if all cameras were banned from public demonstrations like these so preventing the pictures being sent worldwide.

Gordon Brown has sent a special envoy to the United Nations in New York for "urgent" talks on the war in Sri Lanka.
Special Representative, MP Des Browne, will try to secure a ceasefire between government forces and Tamil Tiger rebels fighting in the north.
Foreign Secretary David Miliband said he was "gravely concerned" that 100,000 civilians remained trapped in the area.
Still, much easier to not think of the 100,000 people trapped - as long as you can get to your train on time - that's the important thing in life

Why do you think that they are not British citizens - why do you think that 'we' have allowed them to stay here? A lot of Sri Lankans came over in the 1950s (when asked for by the government) and are now British citizens.
Freedom is having the ability to protest. How exactly do you feel sh?t upon?

Can't understand why they aren't protesting outside the Sri Lankan High Commission. That's where the problem lies. Nowt to do with us.
In the same way that when Jews were being persecuted by the Germans, they didn't protest outside the German Embassy - rather tried to explain to other countries the threat that their countrymen faced.
If you want a smaller example, if you were a battered wife, would you protest outside your own house or rather try and find other people (who you hoped would be compassionate when you told them the situation).
Whilst we may not be the world's policemen, we can try and put pressure on the Sri Lankan government to call a ceasefire and to stop civilians being killed.
