The BBC says:

Protesters in the UK have been marching against the war in Iraq - two years after the US-led assault began.

Police say about 45,000 people joined a demonstration in London, while organisers put the figure at 100,000.

There was also a protest in Glasgow and demonstrations took place in over 30 cities across the world as part of an international day of action.

Protesters placed a coffin outside the American Embassy in London with the words "100,000 dead" written on it.

A reasonable turnout given that it's already two years since the illegal war started. It will only mean something if Blair and/or Bush are charged with war crimes by an international tribunal.
