Hello all,


Would anyone like to meet up/ travel together to the protest at St Pauls, on Weds 26th?


I went to the start of it, on Sat 15th, with my children (aged 1.5 and 3.5) and was struck by the need for more so-called ordinary people to show support, as otherwise it gets dismissed as just the usual suspects (far left agitators etc).


I am impressed that people are braving discomfort, cold and inconvenience to highlight the inequality in our country and I would like to support that (if only for a bit).


Would anyone like to come too? It's a bus ride - I got the 63 from Peckham Rye to near Ludgate Hill and it took about 50 mins in total.


Thanks

Hi Zelda


Sorry could not make it but would have been interesting to take a look at what's going on. The MIL went at the weekend and said there is some really progressive ideas buzzing around. You seem to have a lot of hits, presumably you had a lot of interest?

Hi Karen, and others interested,


I went yesterday and it was a very good experience. Even if you are doubtful about the aims/ approach/ location it's definitely worth going along - I found the debate and camaraderie exhilirating. They have scheduled events, like debates, talks, music etc, so it's not just wandering around between tents.


We are planning on going again Tuesday 1 Nov, if we can't go earlier. Let me know if you'd like to meet up.


Thanks

    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.   
    • @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance).
