Define grassroots.

It is part of building for a mobilisation for the March 18th demo. There will be coaches from various localities in Brum. The Kings Heath meeting had 40 people, including people from the local church, muslims, local tade unionists etc.

Is that not grassroots? The Carrs lane mtg will be similar in composition.
Maybe you don't support demos. Fine. Don't come, but don't obstruct publicising it for those who disagree with you.

Down with grassroots elitism I say!!
