UK: Thousands to march in support of immediate ceasefire
The largest peace march since before the Iraq invasion is expected to descend upon Downing Street today demanding that Tony Blair calls for an unconditional ceasefire in the Middle East.

In a powerful demonstration of the groundswell of opinion across Britain, as many as 100,000 people are predicted to take to the streets around Parliament Square.

2. Photos from London today:




    A man holding a box of painted dolls waits at 'Speakers Corner' in Hyde Park for a protest march to begin in central London Saturday Aug. 5, 2006. Thousands of people, chanting and waving Lebanese flags, marched through London on Saturday to demand an immediate cease-fire in the Middle East.
