The English Defence League on a protest march in Blackpool on the 28th May 2011.
This photograph was taken as the protesters left the starting point on the promenade at Blackpool outside Yates's. The official word from the police is that they were not expecting trouble but never the less, there was a massive police presence.
Reports were that there was only 10 arrests through the day, put I personally witnessed 5 of them outside Yates's and a further arrest later on in the afternoon on Lythem Road, not far from Witherspoons.
Alcohol was blamed for the majority of the arrests (drunk & disorderly) which brings into question the wisdom to allow the official meeting point for a protest group that has a history of violent encounters with the people that are against the EDL ethos, to be a Pub, not only that, to allow the pub to serve them alcohol at 10am?

Protesters causing complete mayhem this morning in the west end so I biked down to shoot some of this ruckus. Personally speaking, I think the protesters are causing more harm than good. Are they not wasting more tax money by protesting? Choppers and cops don't come cheap people.

I was stunned, overwhelmed, and astonished by the protest at Shahbag. Within minutes I was engulfed by the spirit, energy, and excitement of the crowd there, immediately drawn in the public's desire to get "proper" justice. The environment was phenomenal--there were people from all backgrounds, ages, and religions--and the air was electric with the slogans, optimism, and hopefulness of the crowd.
The country has finally united against an enemy that has burdened it with corruption and hatred even before it was born.

On Jan. 29, 2009, between 1 and 2.5 million people demonstrated in France to protest against the Sarkozy's government policies, especially regarding jobs and unemployment and his handling of the crisis. This was the largest demonstration in 20 years according to the labor unions, and in many cities, historical records were broken in terms of participation. The private sector was also present in the street, even some staff from the Paris stock exchange demonstrated ! The national strike, however, was a bit less successful, but clearly, a page has been turned.
