“Under totalitarian rule, no one is protected by law. We will all be the same helpless victims. When a country insists on its lies, it’s time for an artist to bring forth change.”

Does this square with the meme that if Polly agrees with you, you must be loco?
Easy to say from the comfort of your Tuscan villa.

From that article
“Next they face 13 weeks of compulsory work for “voluntary” organisations for an extra pounds 10 a week”
If workfare of today involved charitable organisations et al, I may be for or if it allowed for people to arrange their own work experience but it doesn’t, it’s forces people to do free labour for big corporations who are using it as a cheap state funded workforce. Nobody is arguing about the principle of work experience, the protests are because big companies are being allowed to take the piss at everyone’s expense with it.
