Thatcher Dead Party 6pm Saturday 13 April Trafalgar Sq

that's not on charing cross road, it's the bit by the waterstones on trafalgar square which goes round the corner onto the strand on the same side as charing cross station.

Take your word for it, was just copying the tweet it appeared with
 
Rain stopped (on South side,at least). Square still full-ish.

Single line of yellow-jackets across South side (no-one even think about going down Whitehall)

Police getting booted and suited up to crack some skulls and spill blood before the end of their shift.
 
Got home a little while ago. Met loads of people including many urbanites. Great atmosphere despite the pissing rain. 2000-3000 people in attendance plus loads more having a breather in local pubs. The scene in the Chandos was mad, singing, chanting, full of great folk. :)
 
i've never seen that many police in and mostly around that area for any demo in my life.
all good fun and well worth going but compared with Brixton on Monday, it all felt a bit forced, proving a point today compared to what was a pretty spontainous celebration outside the Ritzy.
but respect to everyone still out there. we're still around and we're smiling, she isn't.
 
Did a couple of hours down there earlier...Some pretty ace dedication from those battling the elements. The pair dancing on the National Gallery were something else, ditto their follower who was damn brave in those heels (and glad I saw them both partying later, could have ended in tears :cool: )

Tbf, whilst the whole place seemed to be aware of the potential police onslaught, though when I as there (8-10ish) the agression never came from them (saw them back off from quite a few confrontations too). Seemed to have a policy of letting the fire burn out.

Saw a couple of skirmishes though any aggro was vastly outnumbered by randoms reminding people they're on the same side :cool:

Oh, and some serious cameras on display - saw a few bits of argy bargy with the OB where - after the dust settled - it turned out to be little more than photographers trying to barge their way to the front of a crowd that was merely other photographers assuming something was going on because of the commotion.:D
