An Anti-capitalist protester hangs from the Golden Arches of a McDonalds restaurant. The fast-food outlet is wrecked after the protesters move from Parliament Square toward Trafalgar Square and past Downing Street. Whitehall, London. May 2000.	A Black-Bloc protester holds a banner displaying the word "AGAINST" on Mayday. The Black-Bloc are 'cause-free' protesters who gather to protect other protesters from excessive police interference. Trafalgar Square, London. 2007.	A British bobby loses control of Anti-capitalist protesters in Regent Street. The group have attempted to march throughout London and have been stopped by police 'kettling'. This is a new tactic employed by police authorities and is designed to prevent protests from taking place at all. Regent Street, London. 2001.
A man objects to having to ask for permission to protest outside Parliament. He is required to seek police permission under the terms of the Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005 (SOCPA) before carrying out any protest within 1 Kilometre of Parliament. The provision is universally unpopular and has led to chronic accusations that the Labour Government have carried out an assault on established principles of "Freedom of Speech". Parliament Square, London. 2007.	A woman sits in the road during a 'lock-on'. The woman carries out her protest in opposition to the renewal of Britain's Trident Nuclear missile fleet on the day MP's vote to replace it. Parliament Square, London. March 2007.	A woman expresses shock at the policing of a protest in Parliament Square during an Anti-SOCPA demonstration. Police have surrounded the group of 75 people with over 800 police officers and refuse to allow them to leave without first coercing the group into giving names and addresses for prosecution in the courts. Parliament Square, London. October 2006.
A bloodied protester emerges from a riot outside the G8 summit. A large international group of protesters have gathered to bring pressure to bear on world leaders including US President George Bush and British Premier Tony Blair. Auchterarder, Scotland. 2005.	Rose Gentle talks on her phone during her two day Peace Camp outside Downing Street. She carries out her protest to bring attention to the 'legality' of the British governments conduct in Iraq. Rose's son Gordon was killed in Basra after being improperly equipped to go into combat. Downing Street, London. August 2006.	A protester dressed as the McDonalds promotional character 'Ronald McDonald' holds an American flag with the stars of the Union depicted as skull and crossed bones during a state visit to the United Kingdom by US President George Bush. The visit is unpopular and almost completely ignored by the British public. London, 2003.
