A-ha, I see your misuderstanding.

There are _two_ sets of protests going on at this G8 meeting.  The smaller 
one is the usual set of anti-capitalists up to their usual tricks.

The other, bigger one in Edinburgh is the Make Poverty History march on the 
2nd July.  They are not anti-capitalist, as they seek to change the rules, 
not the system.
