That's the spirit.

Any chance of posting some contact details, now or when this comes to court, so we can support this excellent person?!

I was going to say reduce the size of the pics

cos it's very unfair on those using modems to connect as it'll take many many minutes for them to be able to see these wonderful pics...

but, it's such an amazingly uplifting, heroic action. Who really cares - the best things come to those who are prepared to wait. What a dude! Enormous respect!

Inspiring and effective action - hope nobody got busted.

This is the business.

More effective than a big speech to the masses in Trafalger square.

OOOps!

Looking again - the I see the lad did get busted (pics are a bit large so I missed it first time).

Very Powerful and Honest Message

What a contrast the images of this protest makes compared to the images of Blair and his Cronies hypocritically displaying their remembrance poppies in parliament today - for it is they who should have blood on their hands.

No wonder New Labour dismissed the Lancet report of a minimum of 100,000 civilian deaths in Iraq, mostly caused by US bombing. It reveals that the coalition are killing at a rate far greater than Sadam ever could, thereby negating Blair’s moral argument for the war.

The new argument, to replace the discredited moral argument, from these shameless and unscrupulous 'leaders', seems to be: to fight terror and give birth to a new Middle East.

Yay

Well done Mil! Very insipring. Just the sort of actions we need to ramp up now that the war shifts gear into a new more deadly phase. I think we've become discouraged too easy and forgot just how much opposition to this war there is in the country. We need to get our anti-war arses in gear!

Well Done

Good effort Mil!
Is it me, or can I not see any numbers on the shoulders of the coppers?

Troops Out Of Iraq Now!

I'm sick of their bad teeth jibes- what about their bad haircuts, they surely have to be the worst in the world. Oh and good for that guy- its good to see the blood brought home.
