A march from Piccadilly to Trafalgar Square

Attracting an estimated 5,000 marchers, Saturday's Slutwalk was a fabulously good natured march through central London.
The movement was sparked off by an idiot copper in Toronto who advised women to, 'avoid dressing like sluts in order not to be victimised.'
The UK's Justice Secretary Ken Clarke added fuel to the fire with his woefully ill-advised comment that there were apparently 'different levels of seriousness' when it comes to rape.
The 'Slutwalk' has now become an international phenomenon, with events happening over Canada, the US, and Britain.
Here's some photos from the London march, and you can discuss the event here.
