It follows on from the student protest on the same day, which takes place from 12 - 2pm. This is not a concert - it's a chance to sing together. Confirmed guests to lead the singing on the day are Billy Bragg, Peggy Seeger, Roy Bailey, Chumbawamba, Leon Rosselson and Steve Knightley. Tony Benn will be speaking. The event was inspired by Pete Seeger singing for Occupy Wall Street a couple of weeks ago. Peggy Seeger thought it would be good to do something similar for the London protest. Hope to see some of you there. |
