Alan Johnston is released and this is of course very welcome news. But what about the 10,000 Palestinians held hostage by the Israeli occupation or the 20,000 or more Iraqis held by the American and British occupation? How about the hundreds of hostages held in Guantanamo and Bagram?

Sadly the IMC helicopter is still out of action so an accurate estimate of the numbers is tricky. The Police working as always to a government agenda said 15,000, the organisers said 100,000. The square (which holds 40,000) was full before the section of the march behind the samba band arrived. So I think its fair to say that 50-60,000 were in attendance.
