Billy Macrae says:
What greeted me as I approached the aptly named area of “Bank” was a small crowd of disgruntled protesters flanked by a veritable wall of riot vans and police in luminous yellow outfits. On the other side, at the far end of the street behind several layers of hefty police, I could see a very large, very noisy and very angry crowd. There seemed to be lots of red smoke, like at an Italian soccer match. As always in situations like this it seemed best to move on. It was time to find a gap.
