Why would you think tens of millions of people "never go on ANY demonstration"?

You're espousing the view that there are a million or two of the demonstrator
category, and that they're a non-representative minority of trouble-makers who
the rest tolerate. But you're wrong -- and dead wrong.

People in this country like to demonstrate -- from all sections of society.
Even governments are bright enough to realise that fact.

Within the British Constitution, the right to demonstrate has been one of the
most jealously guarded rights that people of this country have -- why is that?

Aren't you really just making some very uninteresting comment about yourself?

and are, in any event, too busy earning a living to spend a
day in slow-walking down Central London streets

Precisely. You don't give a **** about anything except yourself.

Well, who cares about you?

Except, people who are "too busy earning a living", are also "too busy" to know
when they're being ****ed up the ass -- at least until it's too late.

Fortunately, at least in this country, there is a tradition of people who think.

Feel free to join.
