However, the weekend before M20, on 13th March, Tony Blair came to Manchester for the Labour Party Spring Conference. The Manchester anti-war movememnnt, therefore, decided to have its "M20" on M13.

On this date, a 5000 strong protest demonstration filed past the Labour Party Spring conference venue flanked by a heavy police presence. These clips are from the rally at the end of the demo when a statue of Blair was cerimonially toppled by the demonstrators.
