Monday saw a day of solidarity actions happen around the world as concerned citizens voiced their objections to the Italian authorities brutal defence of the G8 summit in Genoa and the abuse of protesters detained.

In the UK actions happened outside embassies in Bristol, Liverpool, London and Manchester to varying degrees. Co-ordination was somewhat awry in London as the announced time of 2pm was met by a small group of people who had missed the unannounced 12pm meet. At about two-thirty a small group of people gathered outside the embassy in Grosvenor Square and made a lot of noise with horns, whistles and chants. Prior to this participants stood in a line and held shocking photos of the school where the brutal attack had occurred in Genoa.
