Gun & Knife Crime Protest

From the BBC:

"Relatives of young people who have been killed or injured by weapons have called for an end to gun and knife crime at a peace march in London. The event began at Clapton Pond in Hackney, east London, at midday, and ended with a rally at Tottenham Green, in north London two hours later."

I didn't know this event was planned and was away on Sunday anyway. So read more about it here.

P.S. As per his comment below, Ben Locker witnessed the march - with misgivings.

It was really a march in support of the Respect Mayoral campaign. Certainly judging by what I saw and the leaflet I was given. Here's my clip of it.

Imagine, a Clapton-residing Mayor of London....we wouldn't just be a distination on the 38 Bus (Clapton Pond to the Royal Academy)
