Around 2,000 people down in Brighton for the protests. Lots of running around, lots of out of control police, and perhaps not many people with too much of an idea of what was going on. A full article of the day, and a couple of eye-witness reports will be up on Last Hours ( http://www.lasthours.org.uk) as soon as the site is back online.

Disregard for Animals on Demos

I think its disgusting that Indy Media have displayed a photo of a flare being set of in front of police horses, without criticising the idiots who did it.

yeah, F**K McDonalds, smash EDO but leave the animals out of it.

Don't blame it on the Police either, if they are irresponsible enough to bring innocent animals into this then we have take responsibility and make sure they do not suffer even more.

Just because the police bring these beautiful creatures into the equation does not mean they are fair game to target.
