Lest we forget palestine.

I had ambitious plans to cover an early football game and then hot foot it to the march but I've woken up feeling bloody rubbish. Damn.

 

[PTK]

Caller on Any Answers says that Arabs who fought against Ottoman Empire in First World War should be remembered at Rembrance in London.

Reports I’m getting from my lot are that things are peaceful, at least where they are.
Plenty of families.

Been watching the march go past Vauxhall Cross for the past hour, not seen any grief at all (apart from the FBU PA system at the junction of Nine Elms Lane / Wandsworth Road, which is idiotically loud).

It's a million person shuffle

a lot of people watching it go by from the bus station at Vauxhall, if you don't feel like walking

As if to annoy me further, the photo report I just posted up from last night's Brixton rally is refusing to load on Brixton Buzz and my expensive mouse can no longer copy and paste.

Sent some of the info above to my sister, who said they were just coming up to the bridge and had stopped moving, but latest word is that they've crossed the bridge successfully, everything seems very polite and respectable.
One more LAFA postdump:
Worth noting that thus far the fash are not able to do much and are very uncoordinated in these areas, so do not panic: they arent forming stormtrooper squads, but they are present and caution very much needed.
Front elements of the Palestine demo are crossing the river. Fash haven't been able to cohere their group at all and are slinking off to pubs but there are still notable dangerous elements and inbound cop reinforcements.
The bulk of the far right are kettled outside parliament, begging their allies to assist them on their social media pages, or being chased by cops, with the rest either in pubs, heckling on sidelines, or milling around.
There is still a group attempting shit at the bridge however so for everyone out today, please remain vigilant as the bulk of the march approaches this area. They might suck but they're still dangerous.
Brawls erupting at various pubs including pint glasses thrown at police, some of these pubs relatively near to the march. Minimum of 3 pubs being effectively blockaded by the police.
Far right utterly imploding on social networks and in private chats, as several dozen have been arrested for various things.

Looks like very few women were with the far-right in London today from all the footage I've seen.
Very different to the pro-Palestinian/ceasefire march.

 

[wtfftw]

tiktok has been good for this today. There's some good lives of the march and also the kettle/policeline near parliament.

 

[agricola]

There was a little thinning out of the march but now the road is full of people again.

Names of dead children were read out, followed by a two minute silence.

Was this at the stage?

 

[agricola]

Everyone seems to have stopped by the bus station.

 

[hash tag]

Where is the stage?

 

[Cerv]

[krtek a houby]

Was this at the stage?

Yep

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Where is the stage?

Just past the embassy

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Human animals?

Where is the stage?

by Battersea Power Station station

 

[agricola]

I guess Nine Elms Lane must be full then, because by the bus station is full and the surrounding bits (like by the Riverside pub and Cottons) have loads of people too.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

They're letting people through in batches
