Rush of blood to the head

Quiet chaotic scenes this afternoon at Party HQ:
first came some anarchist elements among students who protest the changes of tuition fees and general costs to studying in Britain. They left their trademark swath of destruction in the reception area of the Millbank Tower, and some staff from the Tory HO had to abandon their positions, either to be sent home or using our offices. Damage is reportedly significant over at #21, some injuries too, and around 40 riot police have taken up position inside. Unprecedented, all that.

As the Mayor said, a minority of thugs have hijacked the agenda of students who exercise their right to protest. The rampage inside Millbank Tower cannot be justified and I hope that police bloodies the intruders and drags them off to jail.
