The first clam on the scene at the St Hill side entrance was this
bicycle person. Spiffy uniform...
Here is Duke, calmly surveying the protest at the St Hill
gate. Protester in the background (and curious clam peeking in at the
bottom right corner).
Afte a while, we were instructed to move on. A group of clams assist Martin in finding the way (in case he couldn't spot the road which was at most two yards in front of him...). The clam in a pink shirt seemed to be in charge.

At the main demo, the obnoxious passer-by returned and started getting into his act again. In this picture, I'm being pushed around (well, he'd try to push me around, but he wouldn't always succeed). He had a go at quite a few other protesters.
The patent-pending Anti-Violent-Incident Technology (trademarked by the ARSCC-UK which does not exist) stood us in fine steed. Not a hand was raised (as far as I know), and the protest continued after the whole thing had drifted over.

After a while, he made off with Duke, at which point two of us detached ourselves from the demo and went after him. This ended in making a formal complaint at the police station, which kept the guy off the street (he had been picked up by one of the police teams looking into this).
This picture is where it all stopped being funny. The guy was swinging Duke at us (over his head) and running after us - on a footbridge over a busy road.
Probably another fine example of "Care in the Community"...
This picture is - admittedly - out of focus. I just didn't have time
to re-focus. On this image I have
the full scan of the negative which shows how close the guy was - 90mm
focal length lens on 35mm camera.
The clams milled out of the bookstore (or whatever it is) and started handing out "Think for Yourself" leaflets. All of them handed out the same leaflet.
Here, a cluster of them is showing off their fine ability to forge their way through life in a truly individual fashion, $cientology style.

Left: Dave and Roland trying to outshout each other. Dave might have the advantage of the sound system, but Roland is full of the spirit.
Right: Clam being very jolly, and very much in John's face.
By some sort of coincidence, some of the clams appeared in, or changed to, T-shirts of the same colour as one of our guys. See earlier picture - he was wearing the thing right from the start...
I guess they didn't have any white T-shirts...

Two clams at the side entrance to St Hill.
Clams at bookstore. The one on the left had also arrived at the side
entrance while we were out there.
More clams at bookstore.
To the left, woman showing lots of confront (Roland has titled the
picture "pretend_ot3") in front of a large cluster of clams at the
bookshop.
To the right, the end of the demo.
