Here's a few pics and a quote from the larger original here (Indymedia UK) reporting on Dubya's visit to Gordon 'I don't give a toss about public opinion' Brown-nose, soon to be ex-(unelected)Prime Minister of the EU cash-cow known as the (dis)United Kingdom.
QUOTE
As placards and sticks flew, a determined mass pushed at the centre. Police jumped to secure the barriers but to no avail. Soon they were in the air flying over the police line's heads.
Cops responded with vicious baton blows. Fingers and heads bled, stabs were made to the stomachs, people fell to the floor but the crowd pushed on. A senior officer ran the line shouting "No Arrests, No Arrests, orders from the top".
Stop the War stewards now pushed to the front to try and calm matters. Ill briefed cops, not realising they were on the same side walloped them with sticks.

Sigh...
PS: Don't miss the comments. See the one called Junk Reporting and the third one after that. Hmm.
