Some old photos of the March for the Alternative in London, March 2011 - a mass demonstration of a few hundred thousand people in Central London against the Conservative/ Liberal Coalition's massive public sector cuts. A great atmosphere and wonderful mix of people from all backgrounds and ages, socialist women choirs, firemen, nursery assistants and of course the masked young rioters who smashed up The Ritz and took over Fortnum & Mason - a rather expensive grocery store.
Even if it didn't change the Tories plans much it was good to let off some steam before deciding to leave the country...
See The Guardian report from the time.
