WAG attempts to claim responsibility for smashing up Tory HQ

A Student | 11.11.2010 20:39 | South Coast | World

The Whitechapel Anarchist Group have just gone on the BBC trying to make it look like 'it was them that done it'

I have just seen a report on BBC News about the Tory HQ getting smashed during a student demo, in which some numpty from WAG named Alex Mclure has taken the liberty of telling a Beeb reporter on parliament square that the reason for violence was because otherwise 'it would of ended up on page 13'

Brilliant guys absolutely brilliant.

Anyone who's worked with WAG can tell you that these people couldn't organise a riot in a recession, let alone a half decent media statement.

Don't believe the sh*te, these guys are first class anarkids, making the rest of us look stupid.

WAG either get media training or shut up.

BBC already referred to WAG in demo report on 1 o-clock pm news

11.11.2010 21:51

WAG and their website were referenced in the main news on BBC at One earlier today, quoting someone who wrote on the WAG blog (comparing yesturday to the poll-tax riots). So, the BBC had already linked WAG themselves (one wonders why; it is interesting that the BBC news researchers were sufficientlyu well briefed about the intricacies of the anarchist movment to be aware of WAG and to have looked at their website in order to quote from it).

"either get media training or shut up" WTF?
Are you really suggesting that only those with media training should talk to the media?
Cop on and grow up!
Its obvious from the rediculous article that you have posted here which barely conceals your obvious envy, that you have not received any media training, so why dont you shut the fuck up!!!
Sectarianism, jealousy, snobbery...thats anarchism for you, eh?
