Some thoughts on M26

Just some thoughts and personal experiences from the day.Libya: The objective of "humanitarian bombing" is death and destruction
27-03-2011 11:34
Civilian casualties are intentional. They are not the result of "collateral damage".
Early reports confirm that hospitals, civilian airports and government buildings have been bombed.
The objective of the media disinformation campaign is to blatantly obfuscate the loss of life of civilians.
Tomahawk missiles and aerial bombings are upheld as instruments of peace and democracy. They do not result in civilian deaths.
Pictures and videos from 26th March

You've seen them on telly, you've heard them on the radio, you've read them on the papers: "Anarchists rioting", "Anarchists protesting", "Anarchists this", "Anarchists that", "Anarchists ate my children..." (ok this last one was a spoof).
Today, when a BBC reporter actually had some demonstrators holding anarchist flags, this is what he had to say: "strange banners! only red, and blag, with nothing written on them! nothing else to report!"
The pictures and videos are taken from different points in the demonstration.

Photos from the action on March the 26th in London, England
The People of the UK came out in force today to show their disgust with this government of liars and millionaires, and their policies of unjust cuts. Many companies and banks were targeted for direct action, due to their complicity in a system that increases inequality, or for serving an elite that does not deserve indefensible luxury.
This is what happens
Anti-Cuts Demo - Kennington Feeder March
26-03-2011 23:22
We marched from Kennington Park and made our way up to Waterloo, joined the main march at Westminster Bridge and then moved slowly, past Downing Street and on to and Trafalgar Square. From there we broke off from the main march and on to Oxford Street where a number of shops were in the process of being targeted for unpaid taxes...
General good humour except at the odd police obstruction or attempted kettle. Passers-by and shoppers seemed pretty unfazed by most of the events. Police seemed overwhelmed & stretched at times or resigned & disinterested during many of the actions we witnessed.
