Description
<p>Protest bad. Killing millions with nuclear warheads good.</p>
<p>This is our inaugural episode. We're both more jaded and cynical than the last time we did a podcast. </p>
<p>We talk about the recent protests surrounding The Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill, and the government's assault on the freedom to protest. We talk about the public reaction, other forms of "acceptable violence" and about the willingness to accept violence as long as the state is committing it. </p>
