Thank you brave police. We can't afford more useless protests in the country.

Government thuggery to curb democratic rights. I hope the World Human Rights organisations and western leaders including the leader/our big brother will take note of this

The NPP women protesters did not care two hoots about the water cannon as they faced it with courage by shielding themselves with their posteriors like in Africa which is shame for the male chauvinists of the government ruling legislators in not addresssing the day to day living costs for the upkeep of their families.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Allow protests, it would fissle out like a passing cloud, curbing protests would strengthen the protesters to regroup with greater strength, flexibility and leniency required to deal with protests.

A well earned bath!. And that too at the taxpayers expense! Good because water is expensive these days. Should have added some deo shampoo as well.

Desabandu who is only Acting IGP must have scored points today for using water cannon on the women protesters. The points would have doubled if tear gas too was used. This is suppression of Democratic Rights. Aren't these issues taken up by the Opposition together with other protests daily seen throughout the country, with the International HRC and and the IMF?

The Police follow orders, any orders. They dont take decisions nor use common sense. The orders come from politicians who frankly dont know any other way. Politicians in this government only allow people to gather to listen and applaud at their meetings, not to challenge, dispute or protest. These are the last flickering of the dying flame. This time next year the Police behaviour will be unrecognisable!

These innocent forces need to eat and feed their children whether like this job or not? Pin Padiyas do nothing and go around the world and show us photos with unwanted refused people to represent himself! Myna and his clan is enjoying all stolen public funds! Poor people get batton shots, and water jets for their hunger and frustration! We do not need a Law of this country!
