Just back from London. The demo was very peaceful where we were, whole families there, a nice atmosphere, people trying to put litter in overflowing bins, all ery respectful.. The anarchists and the breakaway groups as far as I'm concerned were not part of the march, they had their own agenda. I feel they hijacked it to do the most damage while the police were elsewhere. Wallies.

It was amazing to see SO many people. We joined the march about 12.30ish when it was already in flow. We went to Hyde park listened to a lot of the speakers and left; people were still coming in, Traffalgar Square was still packed and there was still a massive march! Amazing.

I hope the media can keep some focus on just how good natured the main march was and how peacful it was. It is amazing that so many people came to have their voices heard and that there was no trouble.

All I have heard is about the minority of idiots :( It is so disappointing when the media puts the focus on a few twats!

indeed see all the comments above. It was a good, well run, thoughtful and good natured protest by a hugh number of people.
