are about and we're going to see more protests during this winter of discontent because ordinary folk who say why should we lose forty thousand police officers why should public sector workers be losing their jobs why should meal on wheels on wheels be cut why should help for the elderly because why should the arts project because why should we not have enough money in our coffers but we certainly can find seven billion pounds there'd be no need for these cuts what's that economists argue if we weren't in the year so there'd be no need for the students to be protesting and that's what needs to be discussed and we are seeing lots of protests they started off in continental europe and they've now undoubtedly spreads the k. do you see this as the sort of beginning of the end of the e.u. i certainly think the euro is crashing and burning our belief portugal will go spain were dollars in spain just true three weeks ago and a lot of radio shows over in spain there's swathes of swathes of council not so it's not council housing estates with brand new houses and apartments completely empty ju

yesterday said that they will be carrying on protesting is important to note the. rise that has been agreed will treble be about that it cost students to go to university or some students attend the way it's going to go up from just under five thousand dollars to around fourteen thousand dollars but that won't take effect until the next generation of students goes to university so this this is something that will really come into force in around two thousand and twelve we're also seeing a lot of anger against the liberal democrats who are one half of the coalition that's governing the u.k. at the moment the liberal democrats campaigned on a platform of a polish student fees all together but now that a lot of them ministers have voted in favor of increasing student fees we spoke to chris knight yesterday who's a professor of anthropology and also a season demonstrates that hardly a demonstration takes place in london without him being there and he said that he's determined to fight so and that's what he said for me to. come again. shortly parish young people leading

a year ago, opposition protesters took advantage to protest against the government. now the opposition has largely gone from the streets. he led the opposition green movement in the 2009 presidential election. the government ruled that he lost the vote. now he is not allowed to appear in public. one of his main advisers has escaped into exile. he insists that the green movement is not dead. >> our reaction has changed. we do not need to be on the streets all of the time. the government says that the movement has been silenced. if that is the case, why do they not allow us to organize peaceful protests it? that is unlikely to happen. the small protest at the university in tehran earlier this month is about as big as anti-government demonstrations can get. protesters now have to go online. they can chat in online spaces. people are still active. the demand is there. >> does it worry ahmadinejad? it is hard to tell. he has the support of the ruling conservative establishment and control of the streets. the opposition has gone quiet, but it has not necessarily gone away.

weekends they break into top shop that's a protest against philip green who who is the magnate. top shop he's accused by the protesters seems rightly of registering some of his companies off shore so that he doesn't have to pay tax in this country and that's seen by process as something that symbolizes what they're fighting against which is essentially the rich taking advantage of that position in order to not pay taxes which then in turn the little people have to pay for essentially something that has really shocked the british media this morning is that in that area as well prince charles and his wife camilla as call it was attacked they were on their way to the protesters attacked they're called in one of the windows and three paint all a brick this looks like a deliberate attack on the royal family they seem to be targeted while they were on this on their way to this performance they are on homs but questions are being asked this morning about how that could have been allowed to happen where would the police when that was going away was the protection that they should have h

thousands of protesters came to the very heart of the belorussian capital protesting an election that they believe to have been rigged thousands of people came to this square where we are right now. and the. central. parliament building where thousands more came to join them at first it seemed like a peaceful protest people standing there shouting slogans. and leave which was of course directed specifically at incumbent president. just secured his fourth consecutive victory soon turned violent when protesters began storming the building breaking down doors smashing glass windows they were met with resistance by riot police camera crew in the brawl. in the face by police but. they sustained some bruises on their face and. they seem to be all right many other journalists. thousand people were detained according to official sources here in minsk after police dispersed the riots brutally but very efficiently very quickly it was in a matter of minutes that the square which was filled with thousands of people was emptied by a riot police in full riot gear we know that several opposition of

hundred protests what are international observers saying about the way the election was handled. it appears that it's not just the people. that are not satisfied with the way the presidential election was handled apparently. one of the organizations monitoring the elections sending its observers to. polling stations to observe the way voting is going they're not satisfied with the way the election was handled either they said that the election results are not satisfactory that the process itself was not a democratic one and that basically they wouldn't sign off on an election such as the one that took place here on sunday of course the president and president elect . has already commented on this fact telling the. times. that it came to observe the election not to control. it's not. a somewhat ironic comment one that skeptics already latching on to because of course international observers are not here to simply observe they're also here to draw their conclusions of course. because a. promise. of dollars in financial aid should be signs of a free and democratic election when an o

protest as a storming the main government building tell us what's happening where you are. while at the moment we're here in independence square in the heart of the belorussian capital minsk i've just come back from the main where the main action is just outside the house of parliament and up close you can see that some windows have indeed been broken there are a large amount of people by the doors and they're sort of half heartedly trying to break the doors and push their way and so far there's not been organized attempt to break the doors down and for the people to actually enter the building but the situation in the crowd is indeed very tense just a few moments ago we saw a riot police leave before they did that however our very own camera crew got injured during filming they came up closer to the police barricades and were hit on the head with but tongs police batons they're quite shaken they've got serious bruises we don't know if there's any chance of concussion yet because they're refusing to go to hospital they say they're fine and they will continue working but thi

laura the bill that's brought student protest is into the streets it was passed by an extremely narrow margin but tell us why this new lower school so much public outrage. it was an unexpectedly three hundred. three to three hundred two in the end and the sound bites of what this bill is about essentially is tripling the cost of going to university for students in the sort of next generation to not the students who are there now but the next generation of university students from around two thousand and twelve so the cost is going to rise from just under five thousand dollars to fourteen thousand dollars and so students are up in arms about that essentially and they were joined today by the trade unions the other thing that is really that students have found extraordinary about this is that the liberal democrats which is the party that is is popular among students and of course forms part of the coalition government that's ruling the u.k. at the moment the liberal democrats campaigned on a ticket of abolishing student fees altogether and now the anger is that they have turned around ma

mass media outlets are there were also some sanctioned anti-government protest that was also a first for the country so optimist do seem to say that this could be the political changes that it's on the whole question paul was referring to when we spoke when he spoke to journalists a little earlier but skeptics of course already say that this has a very pragmatic reason behind it the european union has promised billions of euros to belarus should there be signs of a free and democratic election and democratic progress in the country and with minsk it very hard by the global financial crisis this incentive is definitely worth a lot but the people that we managed to speak to have mixed reactions of course voter turnout was quite low in the capital where we are and a lot of people are skeptical about this election and its authenticity and all the . whether it's legitimate or not but on the whole it does seem to to appear from the voter turnout that the people do still have a say in the institute of voting and of course in their chosen candidate because here we have seen some pretty impre

some of us regrouped and came here to protest so of course many people showing the will to protest what they believe a fraudulent election presidential election that seems to be once again won by incumbent president alex on that has apparently enjoyed a fourth consecutive win in a presidential election the only presidential elections that valerie's has had a force for all of the one company president nixon that looks good morning to opposition leaders these results are falsified and over eighty percent that lukashenko a seemingly gathered according to exit polls is also a falsified number that's precisely why they were out in the street so far international observers haven't reported any major violations involving heard of one registered record where an international observer was denied access to a polling station but so far that is the only report on the record and we are of course waiting to see whether international observers will wake or a more detailed report of their observations of the money incentive in there having a positive conclusion is a very big one the european union has

we just saw protests in the u.k. violent ones coming from students because. these will now be passed on to the students rather than the government so they're seeing their painful painful cuts that really hurts them to the core and here what's interesting in spain is that the part of the a certain measure is that the national lottery thirty percent will be sold to the private sector and now this lottery has been around for the last two centuries and for the first time in a very long time they're seeing that it's called el gordo the fact what they're saying that it's not so fat people cannot spend on little things that they need to survive and the last three in scheme is just the way of escaping the problems that even that is having its problems so the year end may be ending but certainly for european countries across the euro zone including the u.k. they're not seeing an end to this economic crisis just yet so this is a very high price definitely for ordinary people having no jobs not enough money to make ends meet certainly a high price all right. helen scopu
