"..and as Mr. Brown spoke, thousands of protesters gathered outside Parliament chanting slogans calling for immediate withdrawal." - "Britain to Cut Its Force in Iraq by Half" New York Times, 8 October 2007


i was there.


6:30 met outside the village to catch a ride to campus
7:00 bus left from campus for london, stopping at cardiff along the way, and the fanciest rest stop i've ever seen
12:00 arrival in London
1:00 rally in Trafalgar Square
2:00 march toward Parliment
4:30 return bus to Swansea
9:00 arrival at Swansea


thus, another day in the life.
a day in london, transportation and food all for 10GBP.. not too shabby i think.


i'm really glad i went.
