I'm pretty sure some people came with the intention to create chaos as the building was evacuated due to smoke grenades being lobbed in (I'm fairly sure that's true).

What fools.
At the end of the day I'd rather let my view be heard rather than idly sit by and complain. There is obviously little chance of it having any effect (now especially because of the rioting) but I think it's quite jaded and cynical for some (not you, many other people have said it to me) to say 'what is the point' and slag off protesters for trying. These kinds of people and their promotion of inactivity allow the very thing they comment on - the deafness of the government to the opinions and pleas of the people they serve.
