I want to know the answer to the following question:
What were the people using during the protest?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Dissatisfaction with the conduct of the war was growing with the public in the UK and in other countries, aggravated by reports of fiascos, especially the humiliating defeat of the Charge of the Light Brigade at the Battle of Balaclava.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: no
