Cool. I bet none of that boing of Crappy Cola and Lloyds gets reported i the mainstream media.
Been probably happening in many other cities.

I felt a little tearful with pride when I heard that. I fucking loves Brixton.

Well that was pretty good fun. 3 pints before breakfast helped I guess! It was great that the Coca-Cola float and the Lloyds TSB float got a massive round of boos when they went past us outside the Albert. Strangely, no-one booed the Samsung bus....must have been too busy watching the girls in bikinis on top. It was quite funny to see the look on the faces of the people on the Lloyds float when we were shouting "give us our money back!"
The torch went past in a split second....they must have been well paranoid when half of Coldharbour Lane surrounded the torch.
When I took this, it got me thinking that I haven't seen this many people in the middle of Brixton since Reclaim the Streets 10/15 years ago.

A couple of jobsworth stewards tried to stop a peaceful couple of people holding signs saying "Stop the library cuts", claiming it was 'illegal'. They were quickly surrounded and told to fcuk off. Steve Reed was there lapping up the Olympic sheen, so we only thought it right to heckle him about the cuts in Lambeth. Tessa Jowell was getting interviewed by the TV (live, hopefully) so we got in a few shouts of "Olympics: pay your tax!!" which didn't seem to please her too much.

That is one fucking shit article. Full of lazy stereotypes and sweeping generalisations - total crap coming from someone who claims to live in Brixton. Sounds like the writer fucked off for 25 years and came back to find Brixton 'tamed' cos there's some posh cafes in the market.
Shame it's not open for comments.

On a bit of break...
Only when there's a train crash or derailment.

I'm in the bottom right hand corner of that one.
Sorry I didn't see you, Mr Hatter, or you, Minnie.
I was there for 30-40 mins & then had me lunch in The Phoenix.
