Tens of thousands of Red-shirted protesters have thrown plastic bags filled with litres of their own blood into the residence of the Thai Prime Minister in Bangkok.

It is the sixth straight day of protests by the supporters of Thailand's ousted Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra.

They hope their shock tactics will bring down the government, but the Prime Minister is refusing to stand down.
