Remember 7th July. And possibly get arrested for doing so

7/7 Memorial Service
This Tuesday 7th February will be 7 months to the day since the 7/7 London Bombings. To commemorate this and to demand an open-ended public enquiry [into the meta-reasons behind the bombings, and the police handling] a non-denominational Memorial Service will be held outside Downing Street on the morning of the 7th February, a ringing of bells and reading of the names of all those who died that day.Meet at 8.45 am outside Downing Street.For more info, please call 0785 439 0408 and check for updates on www.peopleincommon.org


It should be pointed out that by attending this you run the risk of being arrested under a particularly stupid law that many of us are politely pointing out is a waste of time

That LRB thing is pretty depressing.
Just read David Hare's 'Stuff Happens'.

History will not smile on these times.

I can't make it as I have to go to work, but I will be thinking of you all.
