CH4 7pm TV news had a pretty good bit live on the spot earlier where the official demo had been allowed and were at pains to point out this was a long way from the venue and with a brass band due to play right outside the front of the venue the arriving delegate probably would not hear the protestors. They also referenced the fact that protestors were only limited to 100 or 150 according to special powers employed by the police.*

BBC online is saying 300 protestors, 3 arrests as riot police moved in on people who were not at the restricted demo, and a policewoman reportedly had her hand broken.

--

*NB the CH4 tv news was a pretty good section dealing with special branch visits and harrassment of G8 protestors in scotland, the Glasgow Cre8 Summit community garden project, and also featured the senior policeman in charge of the Gleneagles operation saying he would allow all protestors to gather right up to the security fence around Gleneagles hotel... The CH4 news report ended with their reporter in Gleneagles showing how easy it was to pull the security fence apart, and he even went on to show just how easy it was to scale by clambering over it!... crazy.

"BBC online is saying 300 protestors, 3 arrests as riot police moved in on people who were not at the restricted demo, and a policewoman reportedly had her hand broken."




....however what the BBC forget to mention is that one of the policeman was taken away and sectioned for his uncomprehendable aggressive actions when the 16 year old boy got arrested...

photos probably down due to bandwidth, i'm just guessing but the phrase "slashdotted" springs to mind...
