Iraq protesters descend on Palace

This must be a dupe, right?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/3283657.stm

Hundreds of protesters have charged down the Mall towards Buckingham Palace in a day of protests against US President George Bush.
Police moved swiftly to stop the activists - who had broken away from a rally in Trafalgar Square - before allowing them closer to the palace.

A short sit-down protest in the Mall was followed by a good-natured protest near a statue of Queen Victoria.

The crowd of up to 600 was held back from the palace by police.

2. Oh, well...hopefully he could at least HEAR 'em out there...

Because the Queen was NOT amused when Dub's folks asked for the soundproofing of his quarters in Buckingham Palace! :eyes:

No Michael Jackson-type residence for Dub in London, thank goodness!

B-)
