Mayday Events 2 Rally

11.00am Saturday 4th May 2013

"May the fourth be with you!"

Gathering on the Forest ground, people assembled for the annual parade and rally. 

Banners displayed, charnts regarding various things to do with the torys :-) [oh and now UKIP also]. leaflets handed out.   

Lead by Lillian Greenwood MP [Nottingham South], they processed down the Mansfield Road and held a rally at Speakers Corner Nr Market Square.

Further to the events of last year, where many had complained about the invited speakers, the same seemed to me to be true of this year. A number did want to protest but were drowned out by what appeared to be an organised effort to prevent them.
