There was little support in the UK for the war in Iraq. Thousands protested nationwide and marched into London to illustrate their strength of feelings against the planned invasion of Iraq. Some statistics show that public support is reported to have increased after Prime Minister Tony Blair stated that Iraq has to be invaded as Saddam Hussein was in possession of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) which could be released within forty five minutes and was refusing to surrender them. However these weapons were never discovered and in 2005 a government report was issued to confirm that no WMD had been found.
The ancient Roman plebeians rebelled against the unfairness of the patrician's government by staging a sit-in, or perhaps it was a sit-out. The left the city and camped out on the Adventine hill, refusing to participate in any urban activities. The patricians, according to some sources, feared that the plebeians would form their own city, so gave in to most of their demands.
It was the other way round. It was the plebeians who refused to defend the city to force the patricians to negotiate with them when they refused to do so in the first secessio plebis (plebeian secession). Rome was not actually under attack when they did so, but in that period attacks on Roman territories by various neighbouring peoples were very frequent. They did so by leaving the city and threaten not to return unless the patricians negotiated. Their demand was for he Roman state to address the problem of indebtedness. After that they refused to join the army several times to put pressure on the state to reduce the power of the consuls (the two annually elected heads of the Republic) which was unlimited.

Lex Hortensia of in 287 BC was a law which made laws passed assembly of the plebeians (the Plebeian Council) binding on all Roman citizens without the prior approval of the Senate. The patrician aristocracy had been refusing to recognise the laws passed by the plebeians (the commoners) in the Plebeian Council as binding on all citizens; that is, on both patricians and plebeians. A previous law (Lex Valeria Horatia of 449 BC) had provided that the laws passed by the Plebeian Council were binding on all citizens. However, the passed laws had to get the approval (acutoritas partum) of the patrician-controlled and unelected senate. Thus, the senate could veto them. The lex Publilia Philonis of 339 BC repealed the requirement that the senate approve the laws after they were passed. From then on the approval had to be given in advance (at the bill stage), making it a formality. However, the senate could still disrupt the process of formulating bills by disapproving a bill on the ground of technicalities. The lex Hortensia repealed the acutoritas partum requirement, thus eliminating senatorial interference with the legislative process of the Plebeian Council. This law is seen as marking the end on the 200-year Conflict of the Order between patricians and plebeians. In this conflict the poor plebeians fought to have their economic grievances addresses and the rich plebeians, who led the plebeian movement, fought for power-sharing with the patricians. At the beginning the patricians monopolised power by monopolising the seats of the senate, the consulship (the office of the two annually elected heads of the Roman Republic) and the priesthoods. The rich plebeians succeeded in gaining access to the consulship, the other executive offices of state which were created as the Republic developed and some of the priesthoods. The struggle to make the laws passed by the Plebeian council effectively binding of all citizens was part of this conflict. With the lex Hortensia the Plebeian Council became the main legislative body of the Republic.
