SO ... First of all hats off and three big hearty cheers to all those that made it .... especially considering the following ...
Personally I was disappointed to hear that the figures may have ONLY reached 50,000. I know I didn't make it, but I was in a worse position than most British people to attend. 50,000 out of 50,000,000+ people is less than 0.1 % of the population, which is pretty shitty. Greater London alone has 25 million people!! You would expect in excess of 400,000 at a similar thing in Germany and they have just 85 million inhabitants.
Does the 0.1% turnout truly reflect the countries views or apathy. Whichever the answer we must find better ways of addressing this sad fact.
I'm proud of all who went and a little ashamed for not being there ... I was standing in four different stone circles throughout Sunday, though, sending love and peace to you all and the world.
Ride On!! March On!!
