Tomorow, however, may well be very different. I'm trying to blag the day off so I can join in the festivities. mid week protests for those who don't live in london can be a bugger to get too.
edit to add, but yes, we're fighting back

no protester is going to attack the normal workers, who are just trying to earn a crust. They will be going after the main men, the police and the goverment. You are quite safe. Don't buy into the propaganda, go to work in your suit, and be proud to do so. You have a life that needs supporting, and whist there are banking jobs (won't be long before that's a thing of the past) then there will be bankers.

I can't help but feel sadness that the 'dubious' protesters will be trying to hurt the rest of the banking staff that have had absolutely NO impact on the crisis, like me ,
