the RBS 'events' were quite clearly part of a well planned police operatin, it all worked out perfectly for them.

Weeks of hype around 'violent' protests obviously require SOME violence to take place in order to justify the heavy handedness of the cops and any new powers. Leading the 'angry mob' down into an area they knew full well they could and would control, corralling tem in there, and then....just wait.

Obviously there will be some ruccus, a bit of push and shove, maybe a few windows going through - ie exactly what we got. How much damage was done to RBS and/or 'the city'? The cost of all the disruption, new windows, a couple of computers, RBS would have made/lost the same amount within the time it took for the broken glass to fall to the ground.

Meanwhile, the cops coral everyone for hours, make sure the press get some good pics of the 'riot', and that most of the protestors are actually bored shitless. And then, once the cameras have gone, they wade in and kick the shit out of everyone. It's the tactics they've been using for the last ten years at least, and they've all but perfected them.
