Police and the crowd clash in the City.
Capitalism isn't working.
Marching to the Bank of England.
City of London police block the way.
Knocked to the ground.
Battling anger.
Keeping ranks intact.
Tax the Rich.
French police assistance.
The protest comes as the scale of the crisis is revealed to include police forces, councils and other public bodies who have been betting with public funds on the markets, raising questions about public accountability and transparency within the public sector.
The Metropolitan Police Authority alone lose over 30 million GBP within a wider national loss estimated at over 1 billion GBP.
The protest comes on the day international markets continue to fail with widespread losses around the world. City of London, London. October 10th 2008.

A bit like Critical Mass. There's one every month. You only need a time and place and eventually the event establishes itself.

Just think! all thoise demos on the continent where you can still have a good old running battle with the symbols of the state are gonna disappear. Instead we'll get kettles, cauldrons and protective policing and marshalling- just like in the jolly good old UK.
