One Day in London

demonstration for refugees

We drove into central London ending in a mighty traffic jam caused by a major demonstration supporting migrants. From this gridlock we drove to our hotel in Westminster only to find a large group of Labour supporters spilling into the street from the pub below, celebrating Jeremy Corbyn recent election to labour leader. Accepting the dictum if you can’t avoid, join, we walked to the focus of the demonstration in Parliament Square, where I soon found myself at the centre of the activity.
So looking back, the day turned out quite well ending in a memorable experience.
Next day we visited Westminster abbey and took a boat ride along the Thames for old times’ sake.
