Speakers Corner in London

[PinkFinal]

Anyone ever been to this?

I was there for an hour a few weeks ago and witnessed:

*Hardcore anti feminists
*Intense argument over race involving white middle aged man and young black guy that had to be broke up by police
*American in cowboy hat giving Evangelical type sermon
*Old guy who just sang hymns
*Gang of posh college types going on about God knows what
*Black people with display about slavery
*Several Muslims

Sounds like bedlam tbh.
A bunch of unemployed fuckwits with nothing better to do.

I had to walk away after spending around 10 minutes listening to various bullshit being spouted.

There used to be a Speaker's Corner in Manchester too, when I was a kid. It was about half way between the Cathedral and St Mary's Gate, and was built over after the IRA reshaped our city.

Would you make a stand against this? If you don't like what you hear walk away.

Been there a couple of times, first time I was expecting something similar to Life of Brian. it was a bit of a let down.

It is no substitute for proper mental health facilities.

They've put one in Nottingham next to the Brian Clough statue. Only ever see the religious nutjobs there.
