Iraq Sanction Demo - streets occupied pic

Streets around parliamant square occupied by protesters opposing the sanctions against Iraq - 2.03pm - protestors continued towards parliament before being stopped by police - as more reinforcements were brought in (now totalling over 9 police vans - with more in side streets) protestors staged a sit down protest in the road while others were hemmed in next to the countryside alliance vigil tent. More officers were brought in and by 2.15pm began to drag and carry protestors from the sit down blockade - from where I was I could not see whether they were being arrested or simply removed.
