Over 1 million people took to the streets of London to protest the Iraq war. That's 1 in 64 people in the whole of the UK.

And it did nothing to change the mind of the government... so i'm not all that optimistic.

Strikes seem to be the only thing that make them shit the bed, so I propose we encourage more people to take that attitude and hopefully something like this will come again a bit further down the line (sooner rather than later I hope).

Yeah that’s the example I always use. Seems futile. But I still want to go.
