Marching with more than a million people when I was 18 to protest the illegal invasion of Iraq and seeing that the government did not care one bit what the people of the country wanted.
I haven't trusted politician's since then - until Corbyn but we all know what the establishment did to him.
I've spent my life protesting and causing 'good trouble' but they still don't care and they never will - now I'm building community and looking to get involved in mutual aid locally. The only thing we have is each other, the government isn't coming to save us. Quite the opposite in fact, no matter which party is in power.
how i ended up there is a sort of long story… but anyway i recommend visiting to show support, maybe do some flag waving and chat with the kind people there :) it’s a little surreal but very inspiring seeing people abroad working to hold the US accountable just as us Americans are doing so ourselves back in the states. they have upcoming events and apparently there will be a protest there near the US election day (Nov 2nd). i have linked their instagram where they have all that information! 🇵🇸🕊️🍉❤️
