No. I would say the chances of a demonstration
causing a government policy reversal are almost certainly nil.

Strictly within the UK is this?
Because events around the world would suggest otherwise.
If there came a point when a demonstration populated and supported by the majority of the public (not saying that this is the case with the anti-cuts marches) did not sway Government decision making then could you not argue that the UK was no longer under democratic rule?

You're confusing 'demonstration' with 'armed revolution' here, I think.

I do not think so
Egypt was a demonstration, not an armed revolution.
