Nor me.
But the guys in blue are Chinese. They have been getting a lot of flack in the news - being accused of being thugs, and having no offical powers to arrest demonstrators, like the police. Coe was heard saying they should be gotton rid of. I think they are fueling the hostilty towards the Chinese occupation of Tibet.
There was hardly any security at Birdcage Walk in 1992 when I watched.
