Sunday 13th May 2007

We arrived at Hyde Park around 11am to find we'd gate crashed a remembrance parade; hundreds of marching men in bowler hats with a full brass band!

After staying to watch the parade we finally reached Speakers' Corner. There were about five religious speakers and a good sized crowd mingling about. Deciding to get straight to it, Ana Kiss launched into a spoken tirade against the evils of consumerism and our dependence on technology for happiness. Tesco took quite a beating with the Spectacle explained using modern day examples like McDonalds.

The response was brilliant. We drew quite a crowd with the speech and money, and a few people came up afterwards wanting to know more about the Spectacle. An excellent response!
