Yesterday was a big political day in London. I had to be in the city for a course I am taking and the venue is very near Parliament square. So, I decided to go down and check out what was happening. It turned out to be pretty exciting for a political and news junkie such as myself.
I spent most of my time between the Cabinet Office, Downing Street and the College Green area outside Parliament which had become the media circus HQ.
UK folks will recognize some of these reporters:
Adam Boulton from Sky News outside Cabinet Office
Jon Sopel doing interview for BBC News
Kay Burley from Sky News
BBC Chief Political correspondent Nick Robinson reporting from Cabinet Office
The College Green area was great because it was full of political figures, top news reporters and normal people just rubbing shoulders. There were a more than a few wack jobs there too.
Former (as of last week) Liberal Democrat MP Evan Harris was pimping himself to every news camera:
The onlookers were a colourful lot
Son of God and nut job David Icke giving a lecture on Peter Mandelson's connections to the Rothchild's:
Tony Benn (a real highlight of my day) looking frail but still making sure his views were known:
This guy was protesting against fluoride in the water and said it was the same as Nazi Germany.
Then out of nowhere these almost naked protesters walked through. Anybody here behind it?
The crowd reaction to the girls. The shorter white hair guy in the middle is Peter Allen from BBC Radio 5 Live and one of my favourite political reporters ever. His reports from the war this year have been fantastic.
