Tim described this as "the most disgraceful and misleading bile that I have seen in a long time." I just think its ridiculous. In fact, the distinct lack of material by "Campaign2007" makes me wonder if this might actually be a joke. I do hope so, although the campaign which the video supports is all too real.
If this is meant seriously and you had anything to do with its production, kindly do me a favour and kill yourself. Cheers.
Saturday's demonstration against the occupation of Iraq and the renewal of the Trident nuclear missile system was a nice day out. Particularly because I'd decided to go down by train rather than coach which meant I didn't have to get up at some godforsaken hour. Estimating numbers at these things is notoriously difficult. Jim puts the figure (albeit tentatively) at or near 100,000, although I suspect that's a bit high, but there were certainly a lot of people, as you can see:
The march followed the traditional route, running from Speakers' Corner, down Park Lane, up Piccadily to Piccadily Circus, down Haymarket and then into Trafalgar Square where people congregated for speakers and assorted stalls. I've been to lots of these things and long ago stopped paying much attention to the speakers, most of whom simply recounted the reasons why I was there. Which I already knew. Mark Thomas, however, was very good as you can see for yourselves courtesy of MyTube:
I took various photos, most of them not very good, some which you can find over on my Flickr acount. There also seem to have been a surprising number of bloggers present, not that I ran into any of them, including Davide Simonette, Jim, Lenny and Rachel, all of whom have written up their experiences in case you're interested.
Don't worry, if you've got nothing to hide you've got nothing to fear:

Giving the police the finger
Don't worry, if you've got nothing to hide you've got nothing to fear:
PORTABLE computers that take digital fingerprints and compare them against the national police database are being trialled in Waltham Forest Motorists pulled over by traffic police from the Operational Command Unit will be asked to put their fingertips in the machines when they are stopped...
The police spokesman said that if the trail was successful, officers on the beat may get the devices and use them to target people who looked suspicious. [Emphasis added.]
