Protesters liberate broken Tory HQ and take to the roof as anti-cuts resisters resist shock therapy

Yes, as we predicted.

It's 361 years since the head of an English King named Charles was first chopped off.

It seems that the bodyguards of the Heir to the Throne Charles were quite close to firing at those who dared to paintgun the royal limo.

From the Daily Torygraph:

Quote:Prince Charles and Camilla car attack: 'someone could have died'

The attack by a mob on the Rolls-Royce carrying the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall could easily have ended in a fatality, a former police officer has warned.

Security analyst and former police officer Charles Shoebridge said armed royal protection officers travelling with the couple would have considered opening fire had they perceived a threat to their passengers.

"This is a very serious incident. It ranks amongst the most serious security breaches of the past decade," he said.

"Some of the demonstrators yesterday were carrying petrol, specifically to use in arson attacks. If the can of paint had been a can of petrol, it would have been very different."

The former intelligence officer, who has experience of public order policing, said: "One can visualise a situation where police felt they had no alternative but to open fire. It wasn't potentially dangerous. It was dangerous.

Asked whether royal protection officers were allowed to shoot protesters, Sir Paul Stephenson, the Scotland Yard Commissioner, said: "I am telling you that there are armed officers who protect principals and they show enormous restraint in achieving that very difficult balance in our society."

He made a big play about how the students trashed property.

Which is something Cameron's Bullingdon Boys do with impunity all the time.

A curiously hypocritical double-standard, no?

Come now - the Bullingdon Boys were engaging in blood rituals, drawn from the initiation ceremonies of, most probably, the Hellfire Club....
