From the ever sharp, Samizdata, we now have live pics of the 'protests' in London, taken and posted by David Carr of the Samizdata crew.
From Mr. Carr:
By the time they snaked their way onto Waterloo Bridge, they had almost become engulfed in silence. It was beginning to resemble a long forced march to a labour camp and the audible attempt at rousing another chant succumbed to the collective necrosis ("Bush...Blair....Lousy Hair"). I decided to take my leave at that point. Gone was all the snarling nihlism and revolutionary bravura I had witnessed back in February. All the remained now was a long trail of the incoherent, the incomprehensible, the dysfunctional and the faintly repulsive. This was not so much a demonstration as a wave of human spam.
PS I put the word protest in sneer quotes because I don't quite see the people gathering in London as 'protesters' as much as I see them participating in a week long hate/envypalooza.
