That's typical European attitude, here in UK we just knuckle down and accept austerity measures, our economy recovers, we all feel a bit of the pain thru it together. Some European countries don't follow reasonable austerity measures, their economies are still in the poop. The EEC demands extra money from us because we are doing better!!!

I lived in Brussels for a few years and occasionally saw the riot Police in action... you really do NOT want to mix it with them.

 

Fabulous city, fabulous country - much underestimated by most people.

I have spent many a happy day wandering around Brussels and Bruges.

 

Shame to see this.

[Tim BW]

Shame indeed. Not good to see

I was there, fortunately we knew about it and managed to bail before it started getting heavy. Explaining why my hirecar had burned to the ground was not something I was looking forward to

ohh goody, we're off to Bruges in two weeks for (hopefully) some nice Christmas shopping and beer drinking hopefully the clashes will be over by then, or failing that, stay confined to Brussels!
