something quite important happened

[cpw_cpw]

yesterday and next to no-one heard about it.

up to FIFTY thousand people marched through the capital in protest against gvt. cuts and only one major news outlet (guardian) did a story on it.

got to ask yourself how and why

this kind of thing goes unreported by the BBC.

[Rab_The_Ger]

No shi t Sherlock yer some man.

[cpw_cpw]

350 scots have something to protest about and it's the most read story on the BBC.

did their best to ignore 50k in london.

how odd. - view external link (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-scotland-politics-28079812)

There is a mass protest in london every day it's not news. Fact it was gay pride or some such at weekend means load of people out and about.

People unhappy about tax rises n job cuts :zzz: really ain't news

erm, it really is news, matey.

that's a bit like saying there's a fire every day in the city so the brigade should stop sending a wagon.

i did say on a different thread brits have very skewed priorities.

how right i was.

life's not fair it, is it?

i have several personalities and you can't muster just one.

[jiltedjohn]

Best get help now before the cutbacks take effect.

[trickydick]

Oh really cpw_cpw you carry on believing that then!

[harlow_yid]

tricky long time mate hows tricks?

a fire every day means it becomes boring and wont sell papers.

first footballer to come out as gay will make news the 1000th wont.

[trickydick]

Ha ha i know mate the bloke in question is a fool. typical north person. I good but had to come back on here to keep these north people in check ha ha, hope you good mate (Apart from N17 of course)

[cpw_cpw]

if by 'fool' you mean me, i can assure you, you know nothing about me.

not sure who you think i am.

why jump on a thread about a fairly serious subject and add two nonsense personal comments.

[trickydick]

I already know who you are, Get real.

[Artist]

To many cockney's on here.

[cpw_cpw]

I already know who you are, Get real.

thread hijacked now.

who am i then?

i haven't a clue who you are, but you come across as a strange little person with a chip on his/her shoulder in these brief exchanges.

this thread was about a protest in london. i ask again - why hijack it with two comments that really aren't relevant?

[trickydick]

Oh abuse haha. Why does that not surprise me? My is Richard and i live in London if that helps.

[harlow_yid]

He lives slum end of London ie East End ;)

All good mate esp N17 end of things. Looking forward to first game of season at your lots and getting bit of revenge.

note he totally avoided the 1000th gay footballer not news bit. kinda kills what he said dead but hey ho.

He is an idiot mate. Don't waste your breath on the idiot. Ive sent him bait if the fool can smell it Ha ha .

[dazzyo-villa]

Pretty sad really that 50000 protest about something like this and it goes under the radar.. just what the government want I guess..

[harlow_yid]

Protest outside Facebook hq London for experiment on unknowing people.
Protest against tfl bridge removal
Protest outside Egypt embersy by journalists
Protest outside Russian embersy over ukrain...

All this week there are many many others I could list. Why should one get more column inches than another. All equally important all ignored by the press to one degree or another.

Embersy...ffs Harlow :D

which is why you should demand more from the media than shots of some z-list sleb's fadge.

50k ppl marching through the capital should be a front page story.

it barely made it onto the BBC website. a few thousand at stonehenge and 350 ppl in scotland were more of a priority for the BBC.

as i said in the OP, you have to wonder why.

[ThisTimeNextYear]

Cow were you at the protest?

[chalky-ncfc]

I bet that he didnt know about the story himself until it was mentioned on Points Of View...

[cpw_cpw]

Cow were you at the protest?

not living in london, i had no idea owt was going on until the guardian did a story.

that can't be right.

no on else touched it.

Is that not the norm around here?

[jiltedjohn]

CPW, what have you done to upset Tricksy and Harlow?

[cpw_cpw]

dunno.

the tricky one seemed to think he knows me.

bit presumptuous.

They know each other in real life, obviously London is not as big as I first thought.
They're probably clique prospects.

[trickydick]

Good grief JJ, Thats paranoid for even your level, And where is your mate Beastish king gone Haha. How is Stevenage Mad doing? And as for that Claret fool !! Oh dear.

[Acido]

Where have you come from again all of a sudden 'Tricky'.

Im sick of this argument now as to who the real mod is on here. And why have you 'Tricky' given certain comments to Alfie, so he can go and tell his little bum boy Burnsy on (***** England). ?

[cpw_cpw]

i don't get why this tricky lad is so antagonistic.

never spoken to him, never encountered him before, but from the first he seems to have had a problem with me.

chip on his shoulder? not much.
