Recently, one of the main topics in the news has been the violent student protests which quickly turned violent! The situation(debatable) reached a shocking climax when a royal vehicle was attacked by protesters, obviously the motive for these events was the planned rise in tuition fees which Nick Clegg so shockingly performed a U-turn on! I was so shocked to see this, even if he did not believe he would come to power he should have fought these rises strongly! I have several questions to debate with anyone who is concerned, (sorry for the long dialogue) they are listed below:
Do you condone the violence in the riots?
Do you think the riots did anything apart from create distaste for students?
Do you think Nick Clegg should have stuck by his election promises or by his coalition?
Do you think this small minority of pupils who apparently caused the tension should be punished, not only criminally but also within their education?
Thank you for all who have tried to read all this, please leave any comments that you have!

We used to have a rule in our school that said 'you represent the school inside the building just as much as you do outside of it". I always took this message to heart because the way I understood it was I should behave like a civilised person in school and out of it - which is what these people should of done.
I agree with the fact that they were protesting, they have something to protest about and if no one says anything no one will know how wrong it is really. I completely disagree with the fact that the level of violence escalated to the point that it did and it just goes to show you that a few idiots really can ruin it for the rest of us.

every student who did the riots are examples of bad behavior to others. because ultimately what they did just that and only cause damage everywhere. should the students have to think more mature and do not do riot. and better at the finish with a fine for the problem can be solved.

The annoying this that no matter how many protests the students do, against the government, i doubt the government will listen.
All the parties are corrupt, the Lib Dems betrayed their idea of fairness, but them and and Cameron took the idea from the Labour party, so it would still be happening, if the roles had been reversed.
