Cynicism is the biggest problem - as big as capitalism. Psycho_Mafia and aphexbin - you'll realise once you grow up that this protest is vital.Acc. to The Guardian's feed, Billy Bragg is singing The Internationale on the steps of the Bank Of England as the police tear gas protesters - this is musical and social history in the making.City workers are leaning out of their office windows waving tenners at the crowd. How callous is that?!?!Come on NME - give us more news on what's happening - don't fill yer pages with press releases about Coldplay and MGMT, tell us about the uprising instead.
