Clinton – those guys with the home made “socialism sucks” signs seemed to be having a great time. Even after the cops took away their choosen means of self expression they remained cheerful and good natured.

Clinton

Yes, we did. They have balls the size of watermelons. They took their signs and planted themselves in the thick of the action. In the end the police removed their signs because they were ‘antagonising the protesters’.

However, despite the ominous police warnings prior to the event, on the day it was surprisingly peaceful.

The crowd were exclusively white, middle class and predominantly of student age. It confirmed my belief that these ‘anti-globo’ demonstrators are just bored middle class students rebelling against their privileged upbringings before settling down to a career in accounting.

My soccer mums are scarier than this lot.

NEWS FLASH;
My daughter just spotted you on Rove, something to the effect that APEC has adopted a new motto. May be comedy but you made it.

My mate, Dave, is the photographer of these photos (he was able to get behind police lines through some arrangement the Stop Bush coalition made on his behalf with the police, on the proviso that he wear a full “press” outfit).

My Internet is capped at the moment, so I can’t actually find any pics as yet, but Dave said that there are definitely some pictures of the LDP group.

High resolution images can be provided if required.
