Thai protesters marched to the prime minister’s offices, also known as Government House, on Wednesday (October 21).

Footage shows demonstrators marching through the capital before they met rows of razor-wire fences put in place to stop the march towards Government House.

There were scuffles before officers relented and let through protesters who continued to the government building where a letter containing a set of demands for democratic reforms was handed to police.

Earlier in the evening, thousands of demonstrators gathered at the Victory Monument in the centre of the capital on the eighth consecutive day of anti-establishment rallies.

The movement calling for democratic reforms has surged in recent weeks with rallies being held every day since last Tuesday (October 13). It has lead to regular clashes between protesters and police - with chemical-laced water being blasted at the crowds last Friday.
