Georgia has been plunged into a full-on civil revolt as countless protesters overran Tbilisi and clashed with police in the third night of violence following the government's decision to shelve its EU accession bid. The country's parliament building was set alight by furious rioters who threw fireworks and stones, while an effigy of Bidzina Ivanishvili, the shadowy founder of the ruling Georgian Dream (GD) party, was stuffed on a stake and set alight to whoops and cheers from the crowd. Fireworks were also thrown as riot police, with one video showing a lone protester taking aim at cops with a firework 'machine gun'.
