Anti-American Demonstrations
Are there any anti-American demonstrations going on in London. I just talked to someone who was in London last November with 8 other people. They were visiting the Kensington area and walked right into a 15,000 person anti-American demonstration. The police instructed them to immediately get back on the Tube and out of the area. Is anything such as this happening currently?

I should add, however, this same person was emphatic that I not let anything like this bother me; "Go, you'll you have the best time, it's wonderful." He thought the incident was exciting, has been to London 5 times, and would return in a minute. It's the only place he has gone on vacation for the last five years.

15000?
I don't recall that, or any such news and I live here.
There were a few small demos when the bombing started but I don't think anything of that scale... We have had some large demos in London but I don't recall the anti american one being a huge one.
Are you sure your friend didn't just see 150 and magnify the numbers?

There are always demonstrations somewhere, about something!! don't let it worry you. Just don't wade into the middle of it!!we've been in students striking for better teachers in Paris, anti hunting demos in London, some weird kind of demo in Rome, I still have not figured out what..just don;t stand around and wait to be clubbed by a policeman. Go somewhere else! Just like you'd do if you were in DC during a demo!! We do have them here,you know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
