Protest, London (iii)
This series of photos compares two of the largest protest marches that London's ever seen: the 2002 Countryside Alliance "Liberty & Livelihood" march and the 2003 demo against war with Iraq. I felt it was worth attending both; ignoring the banners and placards (and tags), see if you can tell which is which. Can you stereotype what sort of face or clothing an anti-war protestor will have, compared with a countryside supporter? To what extent do the sets overlap? Would you go as far as being able to tell from an image of a single person's face which point(s) of view he or she espoused?
Both sides did have something in common: a dislike of Tony Blair's policies (as evinced particularly by the banner in one particular photo).
