I’m very happy to be visible and be counted amongst the half million people (estimated by Together Alliance) who came out for this historic march in London yesterday. It was fantastic!!!🎉🤸🕊️❤️
I was snapped here before the start at Park Lane. It was actually more of a shuffle than a march😂 (taking us three hours, instead of the predicted one hour due to the incredible volume of protesters from such diverse backgrounds, including Amnesty International, Greenpeace, The Green Party, Other climate action groups, NHS, teachers, different faith leaders (including people from both the Jewish and Muslim communities), various LGBTQ people, Women’s rights organisations disability rights campaigns and of course refugee and migrant support charities…….
It was a powerfully, positive show of unity and solidarity and diversity. ….. standing up for equality and human rights for everyone..
It took us three hours to march the route from Park Lane to Trafalgar Square (which should only have taken one hour!). This was completely due to The incredible volume of attendees.
Long before we arrived at Trafalgar Square The area for the stage for high profile speakers and musicians/bands was at its capacity of 30,000 people, with people queueing for several blocks hoping to join The crowds of supporters in the arena area. There were also thousands of people around the edges of Trafalgar Square to hear the speeches and enjoy the music……. and still, the marches were arriving in droves……. so if you see anyone from the far right or reform down playing the numbers in attendance, I can assure you that they are only quoting figures from Trafalgar Square and not the event has a whole!
I would love to have been closer to the front of the march in order to hear the speeches at Trafalgar Square, but it was not to be, so I have made do with finding them on the Internet today🤩🕊️💪🎉❤️ if you were unable to take part yesterday but would like to sign a supporting statement of solidarity you can find a link to become a cosignatory in the comments below ###
