A bit of background; generally on May 1st every year there is a large demo in London's West End. It is a conglomoration of lots of different groups; hippy, krusty, international anarchists, anti-capitalists, and cyclists. (Yes, the reclaim the street bunch on loads of colourful funky bikes!!)
I was watching News24 that day, getting ready for work, at 7am in the morning they had a reporter 'live' on the scene at Oxford Circus, there was no body there yet really. A handful of police milling around and a bloke on a bike that was it.
The caption for this live vox? "The MayDay Riots"
You still think the media and the police are on your side huh? You think they do not work together hand in glove? Get real and wake up folks!

(You gotta love the guy's comment at the end - "It's liek you're trying to cause a riot" - well duh!) :D
