Four of the people arrested were arrested for burglary -surely it is obvious that they were there for their own agenda? And took advantage of the students protesting as cover for their own actions?
They were wearing masks. Clearly didn't want to be identified. Peaceful student protestors were not.
The people attacking the royal car weren't yelling about student fees, neither the people that tried to break into the treasury.
There are no figures yet for how many of those arrested were actually students.
So before everyone jumps on the charge students more if they're going to vandalise things bandwagon. Can we have some acknowledgment of the fact that we've got no idea how many students were even involved.

AIBU?
To think that just because it was a student protest, it doesn't follow that the violent thugs in masks were students?
