Protests are usually held at where they will get the best media coverage. No point protesting outside No 10 if no one else is there but the PM to see it.
They got massive media coverage for the protest. It did however backfire for them and has done a lot of good for the soldiers. Look at the turn out at the home coming parade after that one.
I can't help wondering who planned the protest and what the real intentions were
It certainly did nothing to change public opinion against our troops being over there.
