Mandela in Parliament Square for unveiling of statue and veiling of dissent

Tch.

Now if all Ken wanted to do was sanitise Parliament Square ahead of Mandela's visit, why did none of these major media names report that at the time? Only Indymedia had it. Was Ken keen to keep it low-key simply to avoid hearing the word 'irony' on a repeated basis for a fortnight? Or did the mainstream chappies decide that that this was irrelevant? Or a bit too feral, perhaps...?

And look at all these people trampling on Ken's precious grass! I hope none of them pissed in the bushes, or there'll be hell to pay.

(Here's the first photo report from Indymedia; you may want to keep an eye out for more.)

UPDATE - Yup... here you go; it even contains some i-word goodness.
