I’m currently seeing reports on Facebook of another large anti-Tory protest up in central London. The impression I’m getting is that it’s even bigger than the one last week, but that’s just going by what I can glean online. Thousands of people are apparently calling for CaMoron’s resignation. My chair is currently having it’s battery replaced, otherwise I would probably be there with them. The strange thing is, there’s not a word about it on the bbc website; you’d think they would be eager to cover such massive popular uprisings, if just to maintain their position as the uk’s primary news source. But then, we all know that the tories will want to keep this quiet, and that, post Hutton, the Beeb knows it has to behave itself. Thus I doubt we’ll be seeing much about these protests from the bbc or any of the mainstream broadcasters (and they say we are a democracy – ha!) but at least we can go to RT to see what is really going on. It’s just dismaying to see this news being subdued in the mainstream.
