David Cameron denounces student protests


Prime Minister David Cameron gave a statement to the press outside of Downing Street on Friday in which he denounced the student protests that week that had turned rapidly violent and destructive. The protests erupted over the government's plan to increase tuition costs for university students. Last week, amidst the protests, a car containing Prince Charles and his wife Duchess Camilla was assaulted by angry student protesters. In his statement, Cameron condemned the actions of the protesters, calling it "unacceptable". Cameron says that the Metropolitan Police Commissioner, the head of London's police force, is mounting an investigation into the riots and also specifically into the attack on the Royal Couple.
