Oh, my! The hotspot is London, natch. Check out reports by UK sources at the BBC News, the Guardian, and the Telegraph. The first violence has broken out, apparently, and I went to the news video feed just in time to see dozens of mounted London police gallop onto the scene. It was -- to my historian's imagination -- weirdly too-reminiscent of medieval mobs. Anyway, this isn't the first UK student protest against increased costs, and it certainly won't be the last.
