There is a small but perfectly formed protest ongoing outside the Iranian embassy in London.
As London drives by confused and in a hurry, British based Iranians are protesting because their family and friends in Iran cannot. But the malignant influence of the regime extends this far, where many of the protesters are forced to cover their faces so as to avoid endangering family in Iran.
UPDATE:
As the evening went on the crowd became larger (and noisier) in an incredibly well natured but poignant demonstration of the rights people in Iran are dying for. The only police involvement was from officers trying to keep the swelling crowd within the designated protest area.
We then retired to an excellent Iranian restaurant for post-protest grub.

Hungry work all that protesting.
Good seeing the full cross-section of Iranian society represented at the noisy but well-mannered protests.
From earnest communists, secular democrats, upmarket royalists, Mujahideen of the MEK,
Young, old, good-looking, the lot.
But mainly the good looking.
yep
