It'll be interesting to see if the crowds get bigger - or will survival be the biggest worry for most Iraqis ?

When a strong police state collapses, anarchy often follows - and strangely people don't seem to enjoy it as much as young UK anarchists, many of whom will soon be on London's streets for the annual May Day riots, might think. In fact considering the damage done to Churchill's statue two years ago, were I the Met commissioner I'd be wary of any tow trucks near Parliament Square come May 1st.
