| Comment | So I'm walking past the area four times a day, the whole way up Finnieston St and down again. Delegates have largely been unfriendly - just preoccupied civil servants and middle managers all caught up in their own importance. When I've tried to offer help to people I overheard who were lost I was looked at like I had two heads. There have been some exceptions though so I'm hoping they were just bad eggs.
My ire however is reserved for the protesters. The repeated protests blocking the squinty bridge does nothing to the delegates, nothing to the world leaders and everything to the _working class people walking home on a cold, wet autumn night_. Twice now they've blockaded it and to what end? First time my partner had to take a 40 minute diversion to walk home, second time last night I texted warnings that the bridge would close imminently as 100 polis showed up while I was walking towards it - and thankfully got to leave work early to avoid it. But what honestly is this achieving? They'd have more impact blowing up an oil refinery and I'd not think of them as massive hypocrites. (Please don't put me on a list somewhere)
Also that tuneless Darth Vader wank can do one. |
