Fuck. London is big, but still, so many.

Can someone put 110,000 (low estimate according to Londoin police) into perspective for a pan-European? If this was Berlin I'd say that's very big.

The Pro-Palestine Demos were a lot bigger. So this is a lot but it could be worse.

about %70 of london voted no for Brexit. I doubt these are all Londoners. This is probably whoever the fuck funds Reform UK putting on a show. Funny thing is these idiots then went on to queue at Indian food stalls etc after the demonstration.
