Olympics: This Is Not A War Zone

This afternoon, I joined a march from Wennington Green near Mile End to Bow Quarter, the gated community that was once the Bryant & May match factory and is now a potential site for a surface-to-air missile launch pad during the Olympics.

The march was relatively small, perhaps a few hundred people at most, but effective in making the point that there are more than the "very small number” of objectors that Defence Secretary Philip Hammond spoke of in the House of Commons.

Here are a few pictures - there are more on Flickr.
