Mob must be punished, says Cameron

The "mob" that attacked a car carrying the Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall must be arrested and punished, David Cameron said today.

The Prime Minister admitted he was "very concerned" about the lapse in royal security, but insisted the blame had to be pinned on protesters determined to use violence.

"We want to learn the lessons from that but, above all, we want to make sure that the people who behaved in these appalling ways feel the full force of the law of the land," he said.

"It is not acceptable, it is against the law to smash property, to behave in that way, to attack police officers, and I want to make sure that they feel the full force of the law."

Speaking outside 10 Downing Street, Mr Cameron said the violence that blighted yesterday's tuition fees demonstrations in central London was not down to a small minority.

"It's no good to say this was a very small minority. It wasn't," he said. ..........(more)

1. Is this a flash point?

I certainly don't condone violence of any form, however; Mr. Cameron may want to be a little more careful in his words right now - lest he find himself on the chopping block.
I'm afraid the protest in Europe are just getting started. Wait until the warmer weather!
...and whose brilliant idea was it to roll the Royal chariot right into this mob?

3. Ha!

What did they think would happen when they jacked up tuition? Having your entire future taken away isn't violence? Tory asshole.
