There were a big peace rally today in London. Some people say 10 000 people showed I think it may have been more, these things are always on media black-out and the spin doctors are doing their best to downplay it.
As usual the London traffic cams were all “not available for operational reasons” so no-one could even watch it to get a good feel for the size of it.
The theme was maybe more one of hate directed at Blair than anti war protest but there were a good deal of anti Israel sentiment too due to the on-going occupation of Palestine.
I took some photos
UPDATE:
According to Sky the organisers says 100 000 people showed up, the police says 20 000. I guess that puts it around 50 000.
