Some photos I took at the protest in this comment
I need a shirt with "Girls just wanna have funDamental rights"
I was there today, it was a blast, everybody was super friendly.
If you didn't get a chance to come this time, you should come to the far-right counter protest on the 16th of May!
I was there too! Agree - everybody was super chill and friendly.
Did you manage to get into Trafalgar Square? I think I got lucky that they opened up as I walked past
Nah we mostly followed the roads. I was accompanying a wheelchair user so it was best to avoid going in and out of the road.
Amazing how organisers and police have 10:1 difference in the attendance numbers. I know the organisers have reasons to inflate numbers, but not by an order of magnitude.
My recollection is that it's usually about that level of disparity. I'd be interested in knowing who tends to be more accurate. Do the police have an incentive to underplay the numbers?

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
