Well done to whoever threw that. I feel proud of the students of Britain for giving the Chinese autocrat such disrespect, and we should continue to do that until they leave Tibet.

However, is this going to become normal political procedure now or something? It's really quite odd.

That's personally what I feared. I really don't like that. Don't misrespect anyone, even if you feel he missed respect to someone. Don't enter in that stupid useless game, you gonna all lose, at this game there are just losers. That's why I find that things useless and stupid. The more you respect your adversary, the more you're strong toward him. A fight doesn't mean a miss of respect. Well, that's at least my personal thought about that stuff.

Oh, if this becomes usual, what will be next step? No shoes for journalists for conferences? Even no socks, you can make a ball with a pair of socks! Well the belt is risky too. Hmm, pyjama conferences in the future?

Pyjama conferences would be awesome.

A large proportion of the audience were Chinese students and quite a few of them had Chinese flags with them while a lot of others had cameras and were taking photographs of him (Wen).

Chinese government rather angry. I thought it was rather entertaining personally.
