From what I read in the papers and saw on the TV, it looked pretty much like a much larger-scale version of what happened on the 1990 anti-poll tax riots. One or two protestors throw things, the police over-react completely and start beating people up, the crowd fight back, and then get labelled as the agressors of the piece just for trying to defend themselves. One thing's for sure, though, the organisers of the summit are going to have to think things through a lot more carefully before holding another one, because two many events of thisnature ain't gonna create a good public image for them.
