        Yay - Richard III!
        And the early 70s.
        Bring it on - I'm ready for the barricades. As one who is shortly to be placed on the scrap heap I am going back to my roots and starting to protest again. Just as I did then.
        All that is happening now is just wrong, wrong, wrong.

                  Well, from my experience one of our biggest 'student leaders' in the 70s transformed into a bigwig in Costain. Leadership will out - and I prefer principled leadership to the other kind - leadership through birth/ wealth.

                      The tents themselves don't echo - first you need a voice.

                          Rent a Mob, they always turn up to demos. Professional agitators.

                          Heck, they might even be from the "other side", stirring it up to make the students look bad

                                I remember power cuts too, as if it was the day before yesterday. Oh, wait - it was the day before yesterday! Right in the middle of 'Genius' on the telly!
