Students on the riot against the tuition fees

The British students went out for the strike once again. Once again it was the violence riot

Picture from tntmagazine.com
London police all the evening was trying to calm angry students and university professors. Protesting against rising tuition fees thousands of people gathered at the demonstration.

As it often happens the peace protest turned over into dangerous riots.

The standoff lasted for the several hours. The police tried to push the students from the headquarters of the conservative party. But it was in vain. Angry students surrounded the office of conservatives and then crushed it.

Windows was smashed. The walls were drawn of the rude inscriptions. The first floor was completely broken.
Police regained the control of the building.  Though, they had to put a human shield instead of windows on the first floor, and periodically deterred students attacks.
It can be said for sure that this was not the last riot of students. Another question is whether the British government will listen to their demands?

Listen to the some comments of students from the University of Westminster about this second violence protest.
