Student protests against cuts to education

Last week in central London students from all around Uk met to protest against the education cuts beign imposed by the government.
Despite vandalisms, the manifestation saw students marching in the streets in a colourful procession. 
It was a nice occasion to meet lots of people and make a point on the situation.
An interesting thing was that students of different nationalities and backgrounds were together exchanging opinions and informations on their respective points of view about what's happening not only in Uk. 
What has emerged from this views exchange, is that lots of students are seriously concerned with the actual situation in the world.
Here is a link to the Guardian with a video from the most °lively° actions from the protest. 
This kind of actions aren't completely useless because they rise the attention of the media and audience too. 
But let's remember that we need to take concrete actions, {which have nothing to do with breaking windows} to ensure ourself and our new generations a better future instead of a newer version of the old story.
