Jeez.
You would've had to be at the protest to judge the depth of feeling amongst those taking part. Trying to impart that through the body of the article would have overly clouded the issue. And, I'd hate to think the POV wars that'd come up through giving the protestors a platform, controlled as it might be.
Here's one of the chants/songs from the protest march. It's a sentiment that resonates, and think on this and go look at the video from youtube. The headline says what those protesting were doing in a brutally blunt manner, I selected to do as "cold" an article as I could and let the photos talk because I've a fairly strong opinion on the subject. How, exactly, would you work this sort of "gallows humour" into the article?
Put the Tories on the top
Stuff the Lib-Dems in the middle,
People are that-angry, the fact that Iain Duncan Smith (the aforementioned "ratbag") had the brass-danglies to say on the BBC this morning he could live on £53 per week shows that. Why? Because over 105,000 people have signed the petition daring him to try it for a year.
That, despite your preferably-genteel approch to news presentation, seems to be at-odds with what people on social media sites take an interest in.
