Re: Rioting students attack Royal car
We should have a republic anyway, and stop living in the past.
Also, the vast majority of students are not rioting, but peacefully protesting. So the police beating some one over the head tot he degree of them requiring brain surgery when they were not one of the rioters is a cause for concern.

Re: Rioting students attack Royal car
you night think so, but i'm not looking forward to the alternative which is a much more expensive president blair. yes, yes, i know in your perfect world the president would cost 50p/year and be the embodiment of a saint and as wise as solomen, i'm not convinced however.
wot IA said, they're are supposed to have brains so why aren't they using them, the anarchists are a PR disaster for their cause. how sympathetic are the working minimum wage supposed to feel when they watch prize twits tarzan around the cenotaph and set fire to things.

Re: Rioting students attack Royal car
This topic really gets to you, doesn't it?
Of course you can make the students pay more, that usually leads to less students, more unemployed people because jobs other than those that require studies are already satisfied with workers and sooner or later your industry will whine that there are not enough people to fill out all the high profile jobs and hire people from abroad like India or China while you wonder how that can be with so many unemployed people and why the government doesn't do anything to get local people into these jobs.
I think finishing university with a loan isn't all that bad if you actually get a job that pays, of course if you don't, then everyone loses (the next big crisis after the education bubble burst?).

Re: Rioting students attack Royal car
The President doesn't need a wage higher than the Prime Minister or a higher consumption of resources. Why would he need one?
I never understood the argument that it would be somehow vastly more expensive. Please explain that to me.

Re: Rioting students attack Royal car
I would start by using the example of every President in existence on the planet.
