Organisers of the first protest against Argentine President Javier Milei’s economic reforms will have to foot the bill for security costs, the Government has said. The Telegraph has more.
Thousands turned out for the march in Buenos Aires on Wednesday to oppose Mr. Milei’s austerity measures and commemorate the deadly 2001 protests that followed the country’s economic meltdown.
Government spokesman Manuel Adorni said a heavy deployment of police, paramilitary officers and anti-riot forces, cost 60 million pesos, or about £57,500, at the official exchange rate.
“The bill will be sent to the social movements” who will “bear the responsibility of the cost which should not fall on citizens”, he said.
Mr. Milei’s Government has sought to clamp down on hundreds of annual traffic-clogging demonstrations in the capital, and is also threatening to withdraw social assistance from those who block roads. …
Since winning election in October, Mr. Milei, a former economist who advocates radical deregulation, has said that he will allow protests but has warned that his administration will cut welfare payments to anyone who blockades the streets.
Protesters “can demonstrate as many times as they want. They can go to the squares… but the streets are not going to be closed”, Ms. Bullrich, the security minister, told local media.
Polling suggests that some two thirds of Argentinians agree that the country should be tougher against street blockades.

“Covid Booster Mandates Were Completely Unnecessary”
Mandates are against medical ethics and simply evil.
There is no such thing as a “covid vaccine”, and therefore no such thing as a “booster”. I refer to this for further information:

“Vaccines” were not “necessary”.
Do the colleges have enough funds for the coming lawsuits?
Yes, think of that, if one family endures the death of a young student with a death certificate stating the death as vaccine related, the flood gates of legal action will burst open!
It will happen.
Yes, I think it will, and guess who is going to fund the compensation?
Albert Bourla? Hahahaha
Twenty, thirty, or more students should group together and crowdfund or whatever and pick on one college and go after the whole administration. Watch the poo hit the fan. It would blow the hole jab business wide open.
This also applies to airline pilots that have been increasingly succumbing to heart problems and all the hospital employees.
Absolutely.
Universities and colleges are in the vanguard of the assault on western civilization. It would be a great success if they were sued into collapse. An unlikely prospect, however, given the corrupt state of the legal system.
How many of these students have been harmed or will be suffering in the future? You’d think these universities wouldn’t have wanted to kill their future donor base. How many of the very well-connected students took a saline jab instead? Can anyone find the numbers of student withdrawals from one of these elite universities since 2021 to compare with previous years?
Obviously obscene and all the more so for the pointlessness of it. Although I get the impression that a lot of young people are scared of this disease even when, according to the official information there was very little chance that they would be harmed by it. And young people absorb much less mainstream news than older generations so it is interesting to contemplate this credulity and compliance. I wonder what the difference would be in uptake between those mandated to take it and those who opted to do so for people of university age.
Blame the students, they queue up for these jabs, they are responsible for their own actions. Boycott the colleges.
The sad fact is too many youngers are so dumb they believe in ‘Big State’ and want it to look after them.
I have no sympathy for those that willingly hold out their arm to be jabbed.
I have some sympathy for young people who were studying for careers which, they hoped, would secure their futures. If your ambition is to become a Doctor, Lawyer, Civil Engineer (or myriad other careers) it would be incredibly difficult to ditch your ambition over a refusal to have a jab you were assured was “safe and effective.”
The young people for whom I have no sympathy are those who accepted the coercion to participate in a mass medical experiment because they wanted to go abroad on holiday.
Looks like Don Lemon sticking it to Omid Scobie.
The total burial of medical protocol and ethics by Universities with Medical Schools is shocking. I know students that were threatened with being thrown off the course if they did not take the booster injections. There must be consequences for these greedy Big Pharma pimps hiding in their academic bubbles and pontificating lies and deceit.Why the hell did we have this scum in the SAGE advisory committee?
