Tricky one this. Students have a right to demonstrate against raising tuition fees. However when there is a demonstration the thugs, marxists, anarchists and brain dead see it as an opertunity to further there cause, smash things up, fight with the police and generally have what they view as a grand day out with their mates.
What the police have to get better at is seperating the thugs from the legitimate protesters.
