G20 Summit

So Barack Obama's arrived in the UK in a cavalcade of security costing millions (and they can't even afford to fix our lift... funny ey where all this money comes from and who it goes to).
I want to be there. I want to walk with protesters and demonstrators because what they are saying is so important, what we as a country have to say is so important, what we as world citizens have to say is so important. So much is at stake.
I won't be going though.
It's not the violence keeping me away, I personally feel that threat of this has been blown out of all proportion, as though that is precisely what the media and the police want.
No, it's the small matter of the school run.
Sorry people.
