That`s exactly the point I was trying to make, Matt – or one of ‘em, anyway. When you talk about the protest being ‘effective’, what ‘effect’ do you want?
At the end of the day, we all have to accept that DA currently has the club by the short-and-curlies. If this protest is to become more organised and more focussed, the organisers have a) to think very carefully about what the endgame is likely to be and whether that is the endgame they want and b) to decide how unpleasant they are prepared for things to get (DA doesn`t strike me as someone who will go quietly unless he does so on terms that are entirely to his liking).
I like the idea of going to support the ladies` team, though. Sadly, I have family commitments that day but if I didn`t I might be tempted to do that.
