I loved this because it could be describing the diversity of the London marches though we have a lot more working class South Londoners here. As a nurse from a left wing family (though not politically active myself as an adult) I found 2020 the most disorientating year of my life. The left (in the main)have been repulsive in their calls for harder lockdowns and the medical professions (the majority)seemed to have dumped prior knowledge from March 2020 in the bin. I felt very isolated from friends and family with my opinions on the whole COVID narrative in 2020 but at the beginning of 2021 decided to go alone to a March in London I remember feeling huge trepidation that I might end up in a crowd of fascists then feeling embarrassed that I’d believed the media nonsense as soon as I saw the crowd was just a real reflection of Londoners weighted perhaps with hippies. I have been on every March since and I think everyone is aware of the diversity and finds it funny and energising . It has a genuinely authentic ground up feel to it which is so different from the heavily curated marches organised by the left in recent years and those people the educated woke professionals are so obviously missing and yet not missed.

Meant to say we don’t seem to have the antifa problem it’s more the attacks and smears from the woke “new” left and MSM.
"the biggest violation of human and civil rights in the history of mankind since 1945" lol
