I will be protesting too, but I dislike the idea of targeting the Lib Dems. Clegg may be a liar, but other people involved are still campaigning to help the students.

EDIT: Oh, and, source for the original article?
Is there for honest poverty
That hangs his heid and a' that
The coward slave, we pass him by
We dare be puir for a' that.

Meh, I'm in Scotland, getting my tuition fees paid as things stand, and with a satisfactory stream of income that I can tap into more if need be. I'll just stand by and watch you all, complacently. Best wishes and whatnot. Throwing fire extinguishers isn't cricket. :tea:
Then they for sudden joy did weep,
And I for sorrow sung,
That such a king should play bo-peep,
And go the fools among.
Prithee, nuncle, keep a schoolmaster that can teach
thy fool to lie: I would fain learn to lie.

I applied to SAAS two months ago, and they have yet to get back to me.

I'm not surprised, Chinaski - similar happened to me a few years back. You're actually supposed to apply DURING THE SUMMER - like around July or something. There's a hell of a stampede around August/September for them, and it is the case that sometimes you'll be hanging around till November waiting for confirmation. Maybe particularly if you're not a UK resident.

On the bright side, aside from the tuition fees - you'll be paid anything you're due in student loans or bursaries backdated. That is, you'll get a lump sum of the money you've been waiting for over the past two months. :tea:

Best demo I ever went on was when we kicked the NF of the streets in Lewisham in 1977. They never came back in to that area with there racist filth after that one.
“I wish no harm to any human being, but I, as one man, am going to exercise my freedom of speech. No human being on the face of the earth, no government is going to take from me my right to speak, my right to protest against wrong, my right to do everything that is for the benefit of mankind. I am not here, then, as the accused; I am here as the accuser of capitalism dripping with blood from head to foot.”

John Maclean (Scottish socialist) speech from the Dock 1918.
