Anti-Brexit March - now on 2nd July (9th July rally has since disappeared from internet)

[Laddy Muck]

I've already sent over 400 invites on Facebook...and I'm mentioning it here too. However, I'm unable to post the link on here - so if anyone, who wants to, can, I'd be grateful. Thanks.

If you aren't interested in this - fair enough, but should you want to engage with me in that regard please note that I shall not be participating. I just want to alert those who may be interested in this mass demonstration.

I hope you are OK with this - Admin.

I have never been to a political protest rally. I am seriously considering going to this.

[Jules-and-Boo]

I went to the ' Don't Attack Iraq'.

Massive turnout.

I have a feeling a Brexit one could be quite troublesome.

Thanks, but this isn't the link. I cannot now find it anywhere and it has also disappeared from my Facebook page. Also there is no sign of it on my "activity log". What the fekk!? I'm wondering whether the invites have been intercepted too. I'm not happy about this at all.

Could FB have taken it down? Has anyone else experienced anything like this? (6)

[Blah Blah]

Curious. Can't see why fb would take it down. Can you remember who the organiser was? Maybe they took it down?

[Loz]

If you do a Facebook search on 'Anti-Brexit March' there are a few posts noting the page has, indeed, disappeared.

You are right, Loz. Any clues as to why that might be? Last time I looked over 10,000 people had said they would attend. :-S

Unfortunately - no.

Bugger!

Hi. I don't know anything about the march on Thursday but there's one on Tuesday afternoon/evening (1700-2000) in Trafalgar Square. A search on google using 'Trafalgar Square London Stays protest' finds it.

There's another one appeared for the 2nd July. Perhaps they just brought it forward?

Gutted because I'm out ofthe country now (in Europe for the weekend)

[LondonMix]

Me too. Not because I think the this decision will be reversed now but because I think when someone feels very strongly about something, that feeling needs to be expressed publicly so all our politicians and the world understands the depth of feeling.

Yep, and this one will probably do about as much good.

But then again, I went to that one and will be going to this one.

[Laddy Muck]

Thanks everyone.

I've only seen it on Facebook as for 2 July (sadly I can't go)

ETA: If it is 2nd and not 9th, maybe you could change your original subject heading Laddy Muck so the date is right?

The protest rally on the 2nd is not the same as the march which was to take place on the 9th (details of the latter have since disappeared). Yes, I can see how the title, as it stands, may cause confusion and/or frustration...so will amend. Thanks Sue.

Here is a link to the march to parliament on Sat July 2nd which starts in Park Lane from 11am - https://www.facebook.com/events/244646665920554/

I can't find much out about this one in the news or on the met website so am not sure how organised/ big it will be but worth going to find out!!If anyone knows more about it please let me know. There seem to be and have been several different ones recently while I was away - we need one mass protest drawing people from all over the country, like the anti poll tax and anti war in Iraq ones.

I went through it. It was brilliant - peaceful, safe, jubilant and with a real passion behind it.

There were people of all ages and backgrounds, the elderly, families with babies, dogs, teenagers and kids.

We were there too. Was a good afternoon once the weather cheered up.

Toffee, leavers seems to think they also voted against the right for people to campaign and march for things they believe in. The 48%, or some of them, have every right to make sure government doesn't forget about their views too, especially as there is lots to play for through EU negotiations.
