| MEGA DEMO: Tuesday, 31st March 2009, meet between 5pm-6.15pm, Trafalgar Square/Whitehall/Parliament Square/Westminster City Hall at 7pm
The plan is to meet at Trafalgar Square between 5pm and 6:15pm (Map below), we will begin a short, slow ride towards Westminster City Hall (64 Victoria St, SW1), to be outside by 7pm.
The Met Police are fully on our side, parking around Trafalgar Square / Whitehall will be provided, as well as Police outriders for the ride to City Hall. In addition this protest ride has full backing from BMF, MAG, Motorcycle Parking, TaxPayers’ Alliance and Drivers’ Alliance as well as lots more, check our supporters page for full list.
Cannot make it for 5pm? Don’t worry… be at City Hall for 7pm. If you cannot make it between 5pm-6:15pm join us on the ride (that starts at 6:15pm, map below) or meet us at Westminster City Hall (64 Victoria St, SW1) around 7pm (Map below).
I can assure you this really is the MEGA ONE! SO DO CLEAR YOUR DIARIES NOW! YOU HAVE A WHOLE MONTH TO! NO EXCUSES! GET THE AFTERNOON OR DAY OFF OF WORK IF YOU HAVE TO! WE KNOW SOME PEOPLE HAVE ALREADY. PROTEST NOW OR PAY FOREVER EVERYWHERE. One other plus is that DST time would have begun meaning it will still be light at 7pm, and hopefully sunny!!!
Why is this demonstration important? This is a very important demonstration, it will be held outside and inside Westminster City Hall, We are letting you know now so you can make arrangements to be there.
We have all been invited by Westminster City Council formally to attend the “Built Environment Policy and Scrutiny Committee meeting” we have been told we can make 2 formal representations; 1. on behalf of the campaign, 2. on behalf of Westminster Residents. BMF and MAG and Tax Payers’ Alliance will also make representations against the scheme (but hopefully it would have been scrapped by then).
The important bit from their invitation to us is this: “As mentioned by Councillor Harvey, the meeting is to be held in Committee Rooms 5, 6 and 7, 17th Floor, City Hall. The public gallery can hold approximately 35-40 people. However, We have made arrangements for the neighbouring Committee rooms to be used as an overflow room should there be larger numbers in attendance. The sound will be piped through so anyone in there will be able to follow the meeting.”
Now… 35-40 haha, this is the important bit, as we know we got over 500 last time, at this meeting inside Westminster City Hall we are going to aim for 1000+ so we are announcing the date now to give you time to make arrangements since it starts at 5pm you may need to take a few hours off work in the evening or if you are coming from further away the whole day off, it is really important we get the numbers up above 1000+ it is possible, we have full Police support, and if we get to those numbers we will have huge credibility. | |

| This is quite misleading, from what i hear this ride is NOT going to be fully supported by the police. They are 'sympathetic' of our cause but will not be providing uniformed outriders for this event. Also it is now getting quite political, details of the MP in charge of the scheme including his home address have been leaked and certain people have been writing threatening letters to the guy. The police have been involved and both sides are playing a bit of a dirty game. I will be attending this for sure, but if you are thinking of going i would recommend not wearing your club colours as the press have been writing some really badly written, badly investigated articles on the motorcycle community. No particular names mentioned... (Evening Standard!!) Anyway im there so in anyone else is coming give me a shout!! | |

| For the record... The first post it a cut and paste from the website 'no to parking charges' it is not written by me and to be truthfull, I couldnt care less bout the issue. It is just a good excuse for a mass ride for me. Sorry to be blunt but it is what it is, and it aint what it aint | |

| its become too political but i am campaigning for its cause, as i gotta pay £150 a year to park up at uni and due to its revenues, other boroughs beyond westminster are now considering it | |
