NUS Students Set Up A Self Pity Blog

What the fuck!
Some friends of the fire extinguisher wielding 'attempted murderer' have set up a blog where we can all show our solidarity for the actions of the rioting students. Apparently the mood was good spirited, with chants, singing and flares ... and shit.


Well that's alright then ... so let's have a look at the huge list of names who are supporting this bollocks so far, shall we:
Mark Bergfeld, NUS NEC
Sean Rillo Raczka, Birkbeck SU Chair and NUS NEC (Mature Students’ Rep)
Vicki Baars, NUS LGBT Officer (Women’s Place)
Alan Bailey, NUS LGBT Officer (Open Place)
Kanjay Sesay, NUS Black Students’ Officer
Matt Bond, NUS Disabled Ctte (Open Place rep)
Michael Chessum, Education and Campaigns Officer UCL SU
Jade Baker, Education Officer Westminster Uni SU
Cameron Tait, University of Sussex Students’ Union President
Nathan Bolton, Campaigns Officer Essex University Students’ Union
Clare Solomon, ULU President
Jim Wolfreys, UCU NEC
Dr Marion Hersh UCU NEC and Scottish Executive
Alex Gordon, President, National Union of Rail, Maritime & Transport Workers (RMT)
Lee Hall, playwright ‘Billy Elliot’
Hilary Wainwright, Transational Institute
Alex Callinicos, Professor of European Studies King’s College London

So was it one of those fuckers that threw the extinguisher then?
Who knows but TheEye has much more on this story and he ain't too fucking chuffed.

Something rotten in the state of .... have a feeling the impressionable are being led by a few, and I expect those few are in fact Liebore agitators!
Time will tell...

I'm torn on this kind of thing. On the one hand Students are supposed to protest and even riot, its important that the next generation  'fights' to make things better. But on the other hand I can't help thinking that they need reminding of what a privilege it is to be able to go to Uni. Their Grandfathers would never have dreamed of it.

I wouldn't mind if they were protesting about something important. You know for, say, better day care provision for Elderly Black Lesbian Former IRA Members or the like but these kids just don't want to have to pay a nominal sum (compared to the value of an education) for being able to go to Uni.

One does wonder how many of those Students would have caught the Hamlet reference in your post. When one considers the state of our Education system then it wouldn't surprise me if they thought Hamlet a cigar and that 'rotten' refered to an aged Punk rocker....except probably none of them have ever heard of him either. *weeps better tears for the youth of this nation*

Alas, they have comment moderation on their blog.

What a bunch of prats springs to mind. Sadly move on 15 years and you are probably looking at Future members of the House of commons and senior members of the 4th estate

I watched a documentary on BBC wales earlier this week. http://news.bbc.co.uk/local/southeastwales/hi/people_and_places/history/newsid_8660000/8660121.stm

similar events but hidden from the masses because it was in the hills of Wales. Army called in, heads battered and then back to work. Nothing new really when history is observed

At least we are getting a list of people who should not be employed.

What a bunch of spoiled brats.  If they had to pay over $45,000 a year for some universities out here, then they'd really have something to riot about.  Have a fun weekend, Gotty.

One of the 'supporters' is listed as "Phelim MacCafferty, national chair LGBTGreens"

Presumably related by sperm-donor to 'Phil".

Like the "connection" Joe ..

But Phelim is a Gaelic male name .. ;)

It's Friday, BOTR, and I feel brave!

In your ideal world - much depopulated and bereft of bullets - who would be left? I only ask so that I know where to be. My hands are calloused and are my passport come the glorious day; I look like a neolithic hulk and am able to converse on reasonable terms with most animals; my hair was once blond (ahem) and my eyes a wintry blue...

Just asking! :)

Son??!

Grandson!?!

NFN said...

The correct response would have been 'Nicole'?! :P

Caratacus said...

Thanks Gotty + NFN - nice to know the gene pool is well dispersed...

I posted my question on another of Gotty's submissions but BOTR must be otherwise engaged this eventide. Hark - is that a 'forward assist' I hear in the darkness?

I like the statement on http://teneleventen.wordpress.com/supporters/ about all individual having signed in a personal capacity but they then include their organisation's name or their position. Have they had their organisation's permission to be connected with the petition - I doubt it. But then most at NUT or NUS and everyone knows that they NUS is totally for violence when it serves a purpose.
