Classic error a lot of the press make in reporting it. It's a 2.5% POINT increase rather than a 2.5% increase. It's just laziness in reporting or saying it. Great to catch people out with that difference as it can often make a lot of difference.

I'm just curious as to what people think should be 'the' price for a pint of beer. It's the same with petrol as that is rising considerably at the moment.

So if £4 is too expensive for a pint of beer, what should the price be? £1.50? £2? £3?

Violence is never the answer in protests. The only reason it becomes big news is because of the violence and then the credibility of the cause reduces. Students should be rightly annoyed at the proposed increase. I agree that students should pay more because there is a funding gap in University...

Slightly ironic that the protesters are annoyed that businesses are not paying what they feel is their 'fair' share of tax, yet their protest leads to thousands of pounds of taxpayers money needed to police the streets. (Yes the figures aren't comparable, but the protesting in that fashion isn't...

He's got long sleeved top on and gloves. Goalies are fine, just jump around in your box.

As I was told in youth football, "If you're cold, you need to run around more. Then you'll warm up"

Botham does get annoying commentating. Generally though, Sky have a good mix of different types of commentators. Mark Nicholas is a good presenter and commentator, shame he doesn't commentate in England much nowadays.

There is hardly any but technically it is. 1 or 2 flakes falling, that's all.

No snow in Hassocks

Please don't group all students into one entity. The ones causing the damage, I suspect, are the same people who would cause damage regardless of what the protest was about. Fees should increase, but not three-fold in one foul swoop.

Yeah that would be great. Create an ice-rink in the middle of Brighton for everyone to slip around on. Marvellous thinking.

Having just finished university, I'm rather happy that the fees didn't go up to £9k when I was considering applying. If they had, I wouldn't have gone to university (or at least would have had to have been greatly persuaded to do it). I just finished with a First in Economics, so arguably I am...

I would LOVE it purely because it would be so close But it would tear the pitch up and I couldn't see a big club taking up any opportunity if it were offered.

Is that the 5.9% abv one? If so, it's a very nice beer and quite deceptive being very clear.
