I am very angry, the anti china protest would have been so much more effective if the crowd had turned their backs on the flame rather than getting all hot under the collar. It was easy to see the hand of China in the 'coordination' - witness the scene out side 10 Downing Street with a 'torch attendant' pushing people around so the camera gets a good photo call. The world have seen the true nature of the government of China, not un like Mugaba and his 'Free and Fair elections'. What a joke. Chinas idea of peace and friendship - is do as I say or else. We know exactly they images the chinese people will see on state TV.
I support the atheletes whole heartedly. I feel angry that police officers were placed in the unenviable position of trying to keep the thing moving along over a 31 mile route....absolutely ridiculous. Why should our officers be used as a political tool....the protestors by being predictable have shot themselves in the foot. One stupid woman even took a child on her demo he looked terrified. I will pray for all the officers, I hope they get home safely tonight. Imagine trying to cycle or run in uniform for the whole 31 miles and what do you do with a bike when you are pulled to the ground?
How much more worth while was the programme yesterday about the Terracota Army at the British Museum...fascinating. But even that allowed us to see how repressive the government is, by compulsorarily moving people (thousands of them) from their land to carry out excavations. In other cases they have moved people to build a dam. The poor chinese are prisoners of the regime treated as 'drones'.
Tibet is Tibet and should be free.
Turn the TV's off during the Olympics and make a clear point.
