wow. ive just got back from leeeds (west yorks.) ive been in leeds all day and attended 3 demmos against the g8 and part of the MPH campaing, but the last one realy stuck with me.
we all assembeled outside the city gallerey, with banners placards, loudhailers ect. and listend to speeches and chanted. no cops showed up gr8. the last speech (given by a leeds school student who did a fantastic job) finished with, "now lets go and make some noise in leeds" at which we all left the art gallery and marched arround leeds with our banners, chanting and whistling. we got some great reactions from people in leeds with people waving, claping, showing white bands ect. and many people joined the march and boosted the numbers (not sure quite how many people) and we carried on making up a route as we went. not a single cop, we just marched down the road.
it was fantastic and spontainious.
i hope it gets media coverage, and anybody whit photos can you post them please.....
thanks
