John X Posted April 26, 2011 Author Share Posted April 26, 2011 turn out to be the ones least likely to demonstrate (most of any protestors will be closer to Prince William's social class than DE), and they will be the likeliest to watch it on television for the longest amount of minutes, if not quite the likeliest to hold street parties, though there will be plenty of street parties on council estates throughout Britain. You have obviously missed the list of proposed road closures in the UK. Not only are they concentrated in London and the South-East but a closer study shows them to be largely in middle-class areas.

mj.scuba Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 ..bit of an old timer with this one. Anyone causing trouble at this wedding should be trampled under the hooves of a particularly large, ugly police horse. I think anybody wanting to cause bother on the day will be lucky if the police get there first, lest they be trampled by an mob of angry people who just come out to enjoy the day and occasion without it being spoiled.

Hopefully the genuine revellers won't have to lose their grip on their barley waters, cardboard periscopes and sweaty sandwiches in order to engage with the feckless.

You've also missed the rather obvious reality that working-class communities aren't going to seek permission to close roads officially. They'll have a party on the holiday anyway and just have it on a cul-de-sac without getting official permission to have one. A police car passing by isn't going to bust it. The main point is that most of any protestors are going to be middle and up class, not working class. The 'Red' protestors, more often than not, end up getting bailed out by comfortably off parents, even seriously rich ones, like David Gilmour of Pink Floyd's son, who is worth a 100 million pounds.
