There was never going to be a problem with the events of 11th November in London until it was manufactured by government. There is now a fair chance of something going wrong BECAUSE they have stirred it up with their rabble.
Well there may well have been a problem actually as we have seen a cenotaph vandalised and the poppy seller abused, so it may have happened.

Although I doubt we will see any issues now, but I think it's fair enough to say that protests on armistice day are disrespectful, whether you agree or not.

But to say it's 'the worst part of all this' is quite a take IMO.

Some interesting data from a survey here. 50% of the public surveyed think the demonstrations on armistice day should be banned. I don't agree with that, but it is a day that many clearly clearly consider as a day for respect etc etc. To me that is far more about Sunday morning, but there we go.
