Anti-Thatcher protesters gather in Trafalgar Square
Socialists, students and anti-capitalist protestors were joined by former miners for a demonstration in London’s Trafalgar Square on Saturday. Many communities are still angry at Thatcher’s polices over twenty years since she left office.
The event, which has been promoted by various Facebook groups, has built up steam this week as the row over Thatcher’s legacy in Britain has turned increasingly sour.
According to the UK media, protesters were estimated to number 3,000 and there was a strong police presence. So far five people have been arrested on suspicion of being drunk and disorderly or for “inflicting grievous bodily harm,” the Guardian reports.
It is unclear how many people are attending the protests but Marc Vallee a photographer who has been documenting British protest for over ten years said some elements were “more combative”, such as the students who brought London to standstill in the 2010 demonstrations against tuition fees.
