    Government is fortunate that people aren’t regularly rioting and burning buildings to the ground with the state the country is in.

    This is Rigged has said it will continue to carry out similar actions until its demands are met. They include supermarkets reducing the price of baby formula to March 2021 prices and the Scottish government funding and implementing a community food hub for every 500 households in Scotland.

      Unfortunately the tittle misses. Spray painted cunt on the plinth and planned to glue themselves to it.

      Jam and porridge has minimal victims yes. Someone has to pay to clean it. So I’d say clean up is a punishment that suits the crime.

      Spray paint and glue gets a bit more complex. As clean up is a little more involved. And presents the risk of damaging the statue.

      Unfortunately the concept of who the statue represents and current feelings towards her. Really do not relate to weather their is a victim or not. It is property be it tax payers or some wealthy plonk. Victims exist.

      You should clarify whether that is because an increasing amount of people can’t afford to feed themselves or because of a non violent protest.

      It’s odd how people are willing to get upset over something like this yet turn a blind eye to Prince Andrew.

        Not sure people are turning a blind eye to it. Think you made that up.

          How dare people be concerned with people being unable to afford food in a society with an ever increasing equality gap!

          Let’s get that nonce Prince Andrew sorted first and then worry about feeding the scum!
