Thailand Red Shirt Protests

Have been in Thailand for the past few days for work and enjoying a bit of beach and sun. Arrived in Bangkok yesterday just in time to catch day one of the “Red Shirt” protests today. These Thaksin supporters swarmed the streets causing massive traffic, as you can see, and tightened security around the area. Their request is to have the current parliament dissolved within 24hrs or face intense street demonstrations in the following days. Hope this won’t affect my flight tomorrow afternoon!
