Bristol, 6pm. The city is blocked, by a peaceful with lots of chanting, about 1.500 people: schoolkids, workers, many ethnic groups. Plus 6 police vans. There's a sit down protest led by a 12 years old!
The police estimate of the crowd size at 6pm was 3000. I was there and, in my humble opinion, there were up to 8000 at least by the time our city became gridlocked.
I base my estimate from observing crowd sizes at football matches, attending pop festivals and the raves of the 1990's
