Libyan Embassy Protest, London, Thursday 10th March 2011

Before I arrived someone had attached a small red-black-green "free Libya" flag to the Embassy balcony. The green "Gadafi" flag was hanging down almost to the ground.

Photo from newspaper: one of the two people reported to have taken down Gadafi's green flag:

Very large and loud anti-Gadafi crowds today. There was also meant to be a pro-Gadafi demo today but after I arrived around 4pm I didn't see any at all.
