Norville Rogers Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Rioting appears to have broken out in Brussels as a result of a union demonstration in the city. The authorities are dealing with the demonstrators robustly. I understand that similar demonstrations are due to be held in other European cities including London and Paris. Is the increasingly austerity meted to its citizens reaching breaking point within the EU? The BBC has not as yet reported on this there's a suprise. Is this the start of a European Spring? http://on.rt.com/zoitcf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woolley Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 It's a ruse by the Ruskies to permit their imminent invasion Well to be fair, there are Russians in Kensington who may need the protection of the mother country so they are probably within their rights.
